Wagga Wagga Dance Festival - Sep 11


Wagga Wagga Eisteddfod and its full on for the Dorsett Girls.  Multiple troope dances and solos for all, including Immi’s first Solo – ‘little Red Rapping Hood’



With Troope dances spread over a weekend and solos lasting Mon-Thu, with different girls every day we had a lot of juggling to do with runs to and from Canberra (3hrs away) to ensure they still attended school when they could.


With so many different dances to perform, the planning for outfits started months before and Sal spent 2 weeks sewing sequins and braid before the event. All of the planning and preparation was so worth it – Immi was fantastic and thrived on the stage.  Holly’s troop performances were great and her solo dances were done with breathtaking emotion, a performance that got her the trophy for the ‘most dramatic demi character Age 12 and under’....2 years of lessons and 10 years of practise have finally been recognised!



Despite having very limited time to polish her routines, Katie was brilliant.
She entered 5 solo dances across all disciplines and won 4 of them.
...the first she was taught, from scratch, in Canberra the night before.
