VISION STATEMENT Cape Ballet Africa aspires as a ballet & dance company to achieve a proudly African global reputation, through performance excellence and education; to inspire new generations to appreciate an artform that demands much of the human spirit, yet gives much back to the human spirit; to foster a broad appreciation and following within our African diaspora where ballet is not home-grown. We seek to presciently reimagine how ballet can look in Africa, using the interplay of identity and culture, thereby catalysing a cultural legacy for future generations. The company seeks to produce performances that are bold, strongly rooted in the classical ballet technique, with exceptional quality front-and-centre as an inherent part of the artistic identity. It is founded in discipline & self-expression, individuality in teamwork, with a distinctive elegance, refinement and audacious grace. Through core values of a unified spirit of intent, we seek to move seamlessly through the classical canon and contemporary ballet to a sacred space of being through innovation, collaboration, upskilling young talent to a place of exceptional skill, and to keep an open mind to embedded succession planning from the outset. A composite of all these things, through dance, music & song, are the lifeblood of humanity and the human experience. DebbieTurnerSignoff
