Nutcracker Auditions with Eugene Ballet
On Sunday, December 9, 2018, Festival Dance Academy will have the pleasure and honor of presenting Eugene Ballet’s lavish production of The Nutcracker at Beasley Coliseum in Pullman. An exciting part of this presentation is that the Eugene Ballet will select around 50 registered Festival Dance Academy ballet students ages 5 years old and up to take part in the production, and all our ballet students will have the opportunity to audition to be part of the performance! This is a unique offering to Festival dancers, and we’re very excited to be part of this magical holiday storytelling.
On Friday, September 28th, a professional dancer from the Eugene Ballet Company will travel to Moscow to hold auditions for registered Festival Dance Academy students ages 5 and up. Students must be 5 years old at the time of the audition. This is a Eugene Ballet Company policy and is not negotiable. Auditions will be held in Studio 212 of the Physical Education Building, and there is a $10.00 audition fee, which is payable by cash or check to Festival Dance at the audition.
