There are dance classes for those aged under 11 and youngsters under 16.

Fees for this term are a one-off payment of £65 per discipline with a reduction of £10 if both are taken.

The choreographer is Tamzin Dunstone whose work was a feature of DYT's recent multi-media performance New Horizons.

The theatre group was joined by Dover mayor Gordon Cowan for its end-of-year performance last July, with the premier of Lily Moon and the Ghoul School.

This was at the town's Roundhouse Theatre, which also had DYT's performance that month of the comedy spy thriller Our Man in Havana.

That was attended by the chairman of Dover District Council Michael Connolly.

Junior prizes at the end of the year 2018/19 were awarded to Reina George, Tristan Logan, Ayla Fahie and Stanley Lawson-McGregor.

Senior prizes went to Emma Wardhaugh, Oceanne Ryckembeusch-Todd and Thomas McCaffrey.
