ABOUT

ORIGINS: VOLUME 1

Where the next generation steps into the spotlight


At WTS, we don’t just train performers — we develop creators, storytellers, and innovators.

PERFORM | TEACH | CREATE isn’t just a philosophy — it’s a practice.

And this is where it comes to life.


ORIGINS is a bold celebration of original choreography — a platform for our students to step beyond execution and into authorship. Here, they take creative risks, challenge form, and push boundaries across Musical Theatre, Contemporary, Tap, Ballet, Jazz, and Street Dance. Expect work that is fearless, fresh, and unapologetically original, crafted by the future choreographers of the industry.


Awards Include:

  • Best Choreographer (Solo, Trio/Quartet, Group in each genre)
  • Best Novice Choreographer
  • Best Overall Choreographer
  • Most Outstanding Male & Female Dancer
  • Outstanding Overall Performance
  • The Full House Award (Music, Casting, Choreography, Costume & Staging)


And once again…

YOU are part of the process

With our People’s Choice Award, the audience gets to vote — making you an integral part of recognising the next breakthrough creative.


From This Stage to the World Stage

Our alumni and previous winners are already making waves internationally — from West End debuts to global touring productions including: The Lion King, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Cats, Chicago, and African Footprint.

This is where that journey begins.
