We have been asked to open one more audition for our Nutcracker Performances in December and we are very excited to announce one more open audition on Sunday September 11th. Dancers from any studio are invited to audition. What a beautiful way to build community! Children from different towns, different studios, and different levels of proficiency will come together in one place and share this magical moment. It will be an unforgettable experience for your child. Audition is to determinate role of the dancer, not to eliminate dancers. All dancers that come to our audition are cast in our Nutcracker production. All dancers will minimum have two roles. Roles are based on the dancer’s ability, which we determinate at the audition. 

Audition is open for all students. Currently enrolled Alma Dance students and non-Alma Dance School students are invited. All students, ages 4 and up, that are not students of Alma Dance School are required to sign up for one ballet class at the Alma Dance School for two sessions from Aug. 22nd- Dec. 17th. Proper level placement will be determined for each student.
