AzDEO is excited to announce the 2027 Arizona All-State Dance Ensemble Audition Opportunity — a prestigious, audition-only team for outstanding high school dancers across Arizona.

Auditions are IN-PERSON at Scottsdale Community College (in room PE 135) on October 10, 2026 from 9:30 am-12:00 pm.  Video submissions will also be accepted. Please review the VIDEO REQUIREMENTS to prepare your video audition.

The All-State Dance Ensemble represents the best of dance education. Members serve as artistic ambassadors for the Arizona Dance Education Organization (AzDEO) and will be featured at the 2027 Arizona All-State Dance Festival hosted at Shadow Mountain High School on February 20, 2027. Other performance opportunities may be created throughout the Spring and Summer of 2027. Ensemble members will learn a routine by Anna Jones and will receive official All-State recognition, swag, and state-wide recognition. The All-State opportunity is an audition-based honor program that recognizes exceptional talent, hard work, and dedication. The All-State Dance Ensemble is a significant accomplishment and one of the highest honors an Arizona high school dancer can achieve.

Audition fee: $35.00 AzDEO Member rate (My teacher is an AzDEO Member!), $50.00 Non-Member rate (my teacher is not an AzDEO Member).

The 2027 All-State Dance Ensemble is supported in partnership with Scottsdale Community College Dance.
