Dance Appreciation Series 2007 –
Revolutions In Dance Engagement (RIDE) with SDT

The Dance Appreciation Series (DAS) was initiated in 2006 as a way to engage with potential audiences for the Singapore Dance Theatre, and as a platform to develop and build future fans of the SDT through an informative and interactive programme structure. For instance, each DAS session is capped at a duration of one hour, allowing it to appeal to the short attention spans of younger audiences and the inexperienced viewer of dance shows. Within the format of each session, educational elements such as visual explanations of common terms in dance and ballet are presented.

Audiences at DAS also get a rare opportunity to see what happens during dance classes and at rehearsals. They will also enjoy excerpts from upcoming main productions of the SDT, or get to relive the magical moments of well known classics like The Nutcracker and Swan Lake. All this is offered at a very reasonable ticket price of $10, allowing both students, senior citizens, and other individuals to partake of a taste of the SDT before they advance to the stage where they are ready to attend a full-length production.

The Dance Appreciation Series is a joint presentation between Singapore Dance Theatre and The Esplanade Co. Ltd, and is made possible with the support of NTUC Income Insurance Cooperative Limited.
