A Chance to Dance at the Wells

Tomorrow (Monday 2nd March) Sadler's Wells launches a Global Dance Contest and invites any dancer(s) aged over 18 to enter.

The prize for the Global Dance Contest 2009 is an expenses paid trip to London, including transport and accommodation costs, to perform live on stage at Sadler's Wells in January 2010 at Sadler's Wells Sampled, and a cash prize of £2,000. Entry is via the Internet, with contestants being asked to choreograph, perform and film an original piece of dance (either as an individual or a group) between 30 seconds and three minutes long and upload it to YouTube before 17th July. The team of judges will select the best 10 videos and their creators will be invited to make a longer piece which will be voted on by the public. The work with the most votes will be performed live on stage at Sadler’s Wells Sampled.

Any type of dance can be entered and the judgng panel will include Sadler’s Wells Artistic Director Alistair Spalding, Strictly Come Dancing’s Arlene Philips, the Royal Ballet’s Zenaida Yanowsky and Turner Prize-winning artist Martin Creed.

Full details are available on the dedicated website www.globaldancecontest.com/.
