New Zealand School of Dance - Regional Performances

New Zealand School of Dance celebrates 55 years of World Class Training.

The New Zealand School of Dance (NZSD) has played a significant role in shaping this country’s dance culture for more than half a century and its 55th Anniversary Regional Performance Season proudly reflects its achievements.

This year’s Regional Performance Season is a celebration of the talent and creativity that resides in Aotearoa New Zealand, presenting a dazzling showcase for the exceptional talents of the School’s young dancers and alumni who have come back to create works on the NZSD students. The Season is a truly wonderful mix of newly created and traditional works.

“As a graduate of the school, it is a true honour to return home to create, coach and work with the talented students of Te Whaea. Looking back at past works and revisiting these with new energy has been like opening a time capsule. Thank you to Garry Trinder and the NZSD community for supporting this incredibly special performance season.” Loughlan Prior

NZSD returns to Southward Theatre and Expressions Arts & Culture Centre with outstanding performances of both classical ballet and contemporary dance. The repertoire will feature exciting highlights and cutting-edge choreography.

Expressions: 20-22 September
Southward Theatre: 4-6 November
