Join us at RAD headquarters as we celebrate 100 years since the launch of the original children’s scholarship scheme, which ran for 60 years from 1925-1985.

RAD Artistic Director, Alexander Campbell, was joined by a panel of former scholars, including Wayne Sleep, Marguerite Porter, Marion Tait, Anita Young, Terence (Terry) Hyde and Rebecca Holmes (Trevitt), who shared their personal experiences. They discussed the value of the scheme and the importance of continuing to provide young people with access to dance classes.

This event also includes a short performance by some of the current RAD scholars.

If you were unable to attend in person, you can still register to receive the recording of this event.
