A quote from Mercy Nabirye, Director (ADAD):
‘Regeneration 2014 promises to be a truly international affair bringing together a wealth of world dance leaders, practitioners, managers and young creatives working with African Diaspora dance forms. This is the first time we are hosting the event outside of London, taking it to the South West region at the fantastic Pavilion Dance venue and grounds. The partners have carefully programmed the three days and each day promises to be inspiring with something for each participant’
