Darlington Civic Theatre’s ArtsSpark member Jess Hull accepted into the Phoenix Academy North East.
Darlington Civic Theatre is proud to announce that one of their ArtsSpark members has recently been accepted into the Phoenix Academy North East based in the Trinity Centre, Gateshead.
Seventeen year old Jess Hull has been dancing with ArtsSpark since she was eleven and attended an audition to gain entry into the Academy in June.
Phoenix Academy North East is based on the hugely successful Phoenix Youth Dance Academy based in Leeds. The Academy offers a high-quality training programme for talented young dancers aged 14-18 years interested in pursuing dance as a career. Students meet twice a week, developing their contemporary dance technique through working with recognised choreographers and Phoenix Dance Theatre’s company dancers. Academy members also participate in intensive courses during the school holidays, with regular performance opportunities at platforms across the UK.
Youth Academy graduates have gone on to successfully audition for numerous conservatoires, including: London Contemporary Dance School, Rambert School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance, Northern School of Contemporary Dance and Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance.
Darlington Civic Theatre’s ArtsSpark youth dance and theatre sessions provide a safe, welcoming environment for young people to create, explore and participate in quality theatre activities leading to regular performance opportunities. For full details visit www.darlingtoncivic.co.uk
