Results of the 2024 Shirley Treacy Awards Semi-Finals in Rockhampton, QLD Announced
We are delighted to announce the results of the Rockhampton, QLD Semi-Finals of the 2024 Shirley Treacy Awards. The last of four semi-finals saw dancers from the region showcase their talent in an expert, open class with Michele Ryan with the event adjudicated by the esteemed Rachael McGowan.
We are extremely pleased to witness such professionalism, dedication and enjoyment from such talented, young dancers. While performing for the adjudicator and the event's live audience, the dancers displayed such competence and confidence.
A heartfelt thank you to our sponsors and each individual who contributed to making this event a success. Your support and commitment are invaluable to the RAD Australia and the participating dancers.
Semi-Finals Overview
The Shirley Treacy Awards offer a unique platform for registered students from each city to participate in an open class adjudicated by an experienced RAD examiner. After each class, the examiner selects and announces the finalists, who then perform their chosen dance or variation as a solo. For the Advanced levels, this includes a contemporary solo. These performances are recorded by the RAD and securely sent to our guest adjudicators, who will later determine the overall prize recipients.
This year, we are thrilled to provide finalists with the opportunity to perform in front of a live audience during a relaxed finalist presentation after the official finals recording. This special presentation allows parents, family, and teachers to celebrate the finalists' achievements in a supportive and joyous atmosphere.
