The ‘Debbie Goodman
Bursary for Excellence in the Arts’ is a bursary in the form of a
monthly stipend to support young artists who demonstrate great talent
and potential.
In 2006, the recipients of the award were two
young black male dancers, Mziyanda Mancam and Nkosinathi Sangweni, both
of whom are enrolled as dance students in the Jazzart Young Adult
Training and Job Creation Programme.
Mzi (originally from East
London) and Nathi (from Soweto) are exceptionally talented, with great
potential to become professional dance theater performers,
choreographers and teachers. They have both appeared in Jazzart Dance
Theatre’s recent works, and have demonstrated the spark, magic,
professional work ethic and attitude that make them worthy recipients
of the bursary.
