Let Us Introduce The Judges For Choral Night!
Maddison Apacible
Maddie’s love of dance began at age 4 and has since grown into a dynamic professional career. Her training at Barbara Jayne Dance Centre led her to perform internationally onboard Norwegian Cruise Line, Oceania Cruises, and Regent Seven Seas Cruises, and as a featured tap dancer at Disneyland Paris in ‘Mickey’s Christmas Big Band.’
She holds her Teacher’s Diplomas in the AICD Ballet Method and Comdance Modern Jazz Method. In South Australia, Maddie is recognised for her choreography and performances at the Adelaide Fringe, for the Adelaide Strikers, and at the Royal Adelaide Show. In the 2026 Adelaide Fringe season, Maddie returns to the stage as a dancer in ‘Broadway off Broadway,’ produced by former St Peter’s Girls scholar, Emma Kavanagh, and was also a choreographer for ‘Tune In!’ with TQ Productions.
Passionate about developing young dancers, Maddie is the state choreographer for the Australian Girl’s Choir and is invited as a guest choreographer to schools and amateur theatre productions across Adelaide. She recently launched her own children’s dance classes in Marden for ages 3+. MAD Creative Dance is a growing and purpose-driven community where she is committed to building strong technique, confidence and a lifelong love of dance.
Maddie is excited to be a judge for us this year and will be looking for hardworking, team-driven and overall entertaining performances.
