Persian Dance World Cup Team

B.A.D. Junior Festival Team
Our dancers had a lovely evening dancing and singing for the Mayor at the Basingstoke Variety Show. This was at the Anvil last Saturday 7th October. B.A.D. were part of approximately 430 performers all working together to raise funds for the Mayor’s Charity Appeal. They worked with the Basingstoke Variety Show House Band and local comedy ventriloquist Steve Hewlett (pictured above just before the start of the show) alongside other schools, dance academies,theatre groups and musicians. There was an almost a full house which made for an amazing atmosphere. We will let you know the full amount raised when it is calculated. Sadly, we performed our Persian number that helped Team England to win last year’s Dance World Cup for the last time. It was a well received evening for good causes and our B.A.D. Company were sporting our new B.A.D. Squad outfits too.
