Peter Darrell
Choreographic Award

Follow this link to find out more.

By far the most exciting and focused project by the Trust to date has been the development of a dream to institute a Peter Darrell Choreographic Award.

This became a reality in 1997 when it was announced that the Trust had been awarded a grant of £98,498.00 from the Scottish Arts Council's New Direction Lottery Fund towards the cost of creating and establishing the choreographic award and to fund the publication of a book on Peter's work.

The Award is a platform for emerging choreographers as Peter was particularly keen to foster and encourage choreographic talent. It was in this light that the Trust decided to commemorate his life and work with the Award.

To date, awards have been presented in 1998, 2000 and 2003. For more information about the pieces or the winning choreographers select a link from either of the boxes below:
