My congratulations go to all the students, teachers, choreographers, back of stage assistants, wardrobe assistants, parents and everyone involved with the preparation and delivery of the 2015 youth dance festival. You could feel the energy in the theatre. You could see that the young people involved were enjoying themselves immensely. There were some nerves and a lot of anticipation, but they were all very excited to be there on the night. You can find out more about Ausdance, including the youth dance festival, at www.ausdanceact.org.au.
