25th Anniversary
The 25th Celebrations have got off to a great start and there’s so much more to come throughout the remainder of the year!

CELEBRATION
A very big thank you to everyone who attended CDDC’s 25th Anniversary Celebration and Concert Theme Launch on the 4th May and the event was a wonderful success and it was great to share this great milestone.
It was a fantastic event and I am sure you will agree it’s great to see so much activity here at CDDC.
The performances were wonderful and the spectacular tutu cake was tutu much and the children really enjoyed the cupcake surprise!

TAP DOGS WORKSHOP
Following the celebration CDDC tap students participated in a lively, energetic and exhilarating tap workshop with our 25th Celebration special guest Map Papas from the Tap Dogs. Judging by the smiles and laughter the students thoroughly enjoyed this memorable dance experience.

CONTEMPORARY WORKSHOP
Another fantastic treat last week Sara Black 2008 Helpmann Award Winner conducted a contemporary workshop for CDDC students. This was extra special because Sara trained at CDDC and is now a member of Chunky Moves. It was a wonderful highlight for the students to work with Sara and to also discuss their dance with her.

THE CONCERT
The 25th Anniversary Concert will be a magical night of fantastic entertainment. Invite everyone you know as it’s sure to be a memorable performance.
We are honoured to share CDDC's 25th Anniversary Concert with you. To mark this fantastic milestone we are inviting you to DRESS UP as yourself or your favourite star to walk the red carpet. Prizes will be awarded to the best dressed.
