Dedicated to performing, the Youth Company showcases both the high standard of training that DFA’s students have, as well as their incredible talent. Members of the InSPIRAtions Youth Company, formed in honour of the late Prima Ballerina Assoluta Phyllis Spira, are drawn from DFA’s Bridging Programme and its The DFA Centre. They have a versatile and exciting repertoire that lends itself to a range of performing situations – from professional theatre productions to corporate events. On request, works can also be specially choreographed for particular occasions. The InSPIRAtions Youth Company provides a platform for dancers who have a passion for performing and are keen to pursue a professional career in the theatre.

*A Young InSPIRAtions group, drawn from the Cape Town Outreach Programme, is also developing its repertoire and is available for public performances.
