An audition is a chance for the Artistic Director to determine a role for each student. Choreography will be taught at the audition by the Artistic Director and instructors. Participants must be able to follow instruction and demonstrate the technique/acting that is taught. Once the audition is over, the Artistic Director, and instructors will assign roles. The Artistic Director may follow up and observe classes the following week to make a final decision. It may take up to a week for the cast list to be announced, which will be via email and posted on the academy bulletin board.

- The week leading up to the show, we will have "Intensive Week" which is a week of mandatory rehearsals. (Date & Times TBA). 

- There will be a mandatory dress rehearsal at the theatre the weekend of the show (Date & Time TBA). 

 

Respecting one anohter is crucial for a positive environment, which we strive for at Brevard Ballet Academy. Dance class etiquette is expected from every student/dancer and parent. Be on time, respect your instructor, be prepared, be kind, always dance full out, do not disrupt classes/rehearsals, thank your instructor at the end of class, and respect your studio and peers. And it's very important to... Have fun! :)
