Mlindi Kulashe is the first recipient of the Keith Mackintosh Scholarship Fund

The Cape Times (24/11/08) reports that 17 year old Mlindi Kulashe from Nyanga was awarded the UCT School of Dance award from the Keith Mackintosh Scholarship Fund. Mlindi began his training in 1999 with the Cape Town City Ballet Male Development Programme under the direction of Mackintosh. He has danced Fritz in The Nutcracker(2006) and will appear in the forthcoming production at Artscape. He will also be performing in the Mirlitons pas de trois. As noted in the Cape Times, this is a performer whose future will be worth watching.

The Keith Mackintosh Scholarship Fund aims to suport emerging talent within the local performing arts field, particularly in classical ballet.
