Rise Up With Arts is created by Pasha Kovalev and Anya Garnis, who’ve both competed as professional dancers in Strictly Come Dancing. Speaking about the upcoming event, they said: “having not been able to perform throughout 2020 and seeing many friends struggle without a creative outlet due to the pandemic, we decided to take matters into our own hands and create a virtual experience that could bring the Arts back to life.”
The line-up also includes screenwriter John Logan, lyricist Don Black, as well as choreographers Stacey Haynes, Dominic “D-trix” Sandoval, Dante Culcuy and Paula Duarte
