Eight of the most promising ballet students have been selected to compete in the final round of
the Sydney Eisteddfod Ballet Scholarship on Sunday 26 August 2018 at Sydney Opera House,
Concert Hall.
The Sydney Eisteddfod Ballet Scholarship represents one of the most valuable and reputable awards in the southern hemisphere that encourages young dancers in the study of the art of ballet.
The finalists, who made it successfully through the heats, quarter-final and semi-final rounds will be taking to the stage in an effort to claim their share of the $36,000 prize total.
Matthew Maxwell (Cleveland, QLD)
Grace Humphris (Newcastle, NSW)
Joshua Green (Wollongbar, NSW)
Matisse Lewis (Aspendale, VIC)
Kayla Van den Bogert (Goonellabah, NSW)

David McAllister AM, Artistic Director of The Australian Ballet, and Li Cunxin, Artistic Director of the Queensland Ballet, will join the adjudication panel from the Final.
This opportunity for emerging ballet talent would not have been possible if it weren't for the generosity of sponsors, The Guillermo Keys-Arenas Dance Trust, and Mary Zuber in the memory of the late Mrs Judith Greenep.
