Johannesburg, South Africa (27 May 2025) \u2014 <\/i>A group of little ballerinas affectionately known as the \u2018Baby Swans\u2019 from the Mzansi Ballet Vocational School are getting excited for a big opportunity as they prepare to perform in Switzerland alongside the pros.<\/p>\n
The Mzansi Ballet Senior Company is set to put on a performance of The Gold Rhino of Mapungubwe in Lugano, Switzerland from 30 June to 6 July. This performance will be a highlight in the Rhythm of Two Souths Music and Dance Festival.<\/p>\n
The Baby Swans (dancers aged between 8 and 13) have the chance to perform with the senior dancers in what could be an incredible opportunity for their budding dancing careers; both for the exposure and the experience.<\/p>\n
To raise the necessary funds for the trip across the pond, the ‘Baby Swans’ squad and their support systems are betting on their dreams by hosting a fundraiser in the form of an evening of music and dance. The evening will be hosted at the Pieter Toerien Theatre, Monte Casino for all Joburgers craving a cultural evening.<\/p>\n
Dubbed \u2019Fusion of Favourites\u2019, the event will feature the world premiere of renowned choreographer Vincent Mantsoe\u2019s \u2018Song of Khudugo\/Exodus\u2019 alongside performances from the Mzansi Ballet dancers. Food and drinks are included in the ticket!<\/p>\n
The proceeds are entirely dedicated to the Baby Swans getting to Switzerland, and those interested in attending can email mzansiballet@gmail.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Says proud Baby Swans parent, Charlene Izzet:<\/p>\n \u201cThese girls dedicate much of their time and energy to perfecting their craft and performances, and any support at the fundraising event would be incredibly appreciated. It\u2019s a fantastic chance to witness their passion and dedication up close.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
