Judging the Contemporary Dance Final are Ben Wright, artistic co-director for Candoco Dance Company, a repertoire ensemble for disabled and non- disabled dancers; Fleur Darkin, an award-winning choreographer whose works have been performed across the world; and general adjudicator across all four dance finals, Jonzi D, a graduate of the London Contemporary Dance School, founder and artistic director of Jonzi D Projects and Breakin’ Convention.

They decide who will make it through to the Grand Final and receive the opportunity to perform at the Birmingham Hippodrome in May.

The Contemporary finalists are Max Cookward, Adanna Lawrence, Hannah Connor, Matthew Rawcliffe and Hana Kato.
