Cape Dance Company 15th Anniversary

The outstanding Cape Dance Company (CDC) celebrates its 15th year with a diverse anniversary season at the Artscape Theatre


This season will premier several new works, beginning with theaward-winning Enemy Behind The Gates by USA choreographer, dancer and teacher Christopher Huggins.

A contemporary classical ballet that was first performed in 2001 by Philadanco! in Philadelphia, this is an exciting, confrontational work created in a militaristic style, with provocative, haunting images and striking costumes.

Other new works that will be showcased include Michelle Reid’s Us Travellers and Waiting For The Rain by Alfred Hinkel, formerly the Artistic Director and Founder of Jazzart Dance Theatre.

An additional production in this celebratory season is Crazy little Thing, a musical theatre piece performed by the students of the Cape Academy of Performing Arts (CAPA), the feeder school to the CDC.

This season has been made possible with support from BASA (Business and Arts South Africa), Fruit and Veg City and the Lorenzo and Stella Chiappini Charitable Trust.

Tickets cost R150p/p on 24 Nov for the opening night and include a cocktail party after the show.

All shows thereafter will offer discounts of 10% for block bookings of 10 or more and senior citizens | students with valid identification will be eligible for a 50% discount on tickets purchased 30 minutes before the start of all shows.

All booking is via Computicket or Artscape dial-a-seat +27(0)21 421 7695.
