Cape Ballet Africa has found a new home at the Sports Science Institute of South Africa in Newlands.
Founded by Debbie Turner, Cape Ballet Africa was registered as a non-profit company in July last year. It was using temporary studio space at Cape Ballet Centre in Gardens and Kirstenhof Dance and Pilates Studio. It will move to the institute in February next year as the resident ballet company.
