RULES AND POLICY

A big welcome to Rita
who has fully taken over from Kathy Goodspeed this year.

She has been for over 12 years and has witnessed the benefits that competing at dance festivals gave to her daughter – increasing resilience, confidence, the ability to step outside of her comfort zones and take any situation in her stride. With so much experience from the performer’s side Rita is enthusiastic about the benefits to be gained from participating in festivals and Dance in general, so when Kathy decided to step away from the MSF Dance Festival she was happy to step up as chair.

Having worked alongside Kathy last year she has been determined to ensure that all the best of the Festival is retained but has added a few innovations which we are sure you will appreciate.

Photographer

This year we will have Emily Appleton joining us to take photographs of all our lovely, talented dancers. Emily has been a professional photographer for 10 years and has shot over 400 shows. She is an award-winning Theatre photographer and has been the photographer at various dance festivals across the South West. Emily has also been the IDS catalogue photographer for the last 5 years. Please keep a look out at the festival for details on how you can buy photos of your dancers. Welcome Emily, to Midsomerset Dance Festival.

Catering

This year we would like to welcome Hayley from Books & Cooks Cafe as our caterers. Hayley is a qualified chef and has been running Books & Cooks in Paulton for the past 2 years. She took on the cafe as she wanted to give something back to the community. Hayley is providing hot and cold drinks, snacks and light meals during the festival.
