MADDfest 2025 came alive with electrifying dance, powerful drama, and soul-stirring music! Every movement, every note, every word lit up the stage and moved the audience in ways that only live art can. This year's performances were a testament to raw talent, fearless storytelling, and the spirit of MADDfest. A massive thank you to all the artists, directors, musicians, and dancers who made magic happen, and to the audience who cheered, laughed and felt every moment with us.
