We are so thrilled and honoured that our Scottish Ballet co-production The Secret Theatre won Best Dance Film at the National Dance Awards 2021! We produced and shot this feature length film in October 2020 and it was available to stream online for four days leading up to Christmas. It was directed for screen by power duo Jess & Morgs, with creative directors Christopher Hampson and Lez Brotherston, and produced by our very own Beth Allan together with Tony Currie from Scottish Ballet. We had a brilliant time making this and it’s wonderful to receive such positive response.
Scottish Ballet and the team behind The Secret Theatre were also shortlisted in several other categories:
OUTSTANDING CREATIVE CONTRIBUTION
Frank Moon (Composer and Musician)
Jess and Morgs (Film-makers)
EMERGING ARTIST AWARD
Jerome Anthony Barnes (Soloist, Scottish Ballet)
