THE NUTCRACKER INFORMATION

Sound Movement Arts Center’s – The Nutcracker will be a shortened family-friendly version of the original ballet sure to delight children and adults equally. We’ll be offering our Ballet students ages 6+ the opportunity to Audition for and perform in this holiday family favorite. Currently enrolled and prospective students welcome!

Auditions will be held on Sat, August 8, with a parent meeting on Sat, September 12 (times TBA following Auditions). Rehearsals will be held on Saturdays from 1-4 PM with an occasional Weekday/Sunday for lead dancers. Most dances will meet every other Saturday from Sept 12 – early December (December show dates TBD). There will not be rehearsal over the Thanksgiving holiday break. An in-house dress rehearsal will be held in late November/early December! Parents, please plan on every Saturday in the Fall until casting is set in August.

*Dancers planning to Audition must attend Ballet class(es) over the summer to refine their technique and prepare for the August Auditions. At a minimum, Ballet classes must match the level they are currently attending:

Ballet 1 once/week

Ballet 2 twice/week

Ballet 3 and 4 should be taking 2-3x/week.

Additional Ballet technique classes are always encouraged.

See you at Auditions on August 8!
