Moscow Ballets Great Russian Nutcracker Auditions

Dance students invited to audition Tue, Oct 7 for Moscow Ballet’s Carolina and to perform in Great Russian Nutcracker in Phoenix at Comerica Theatre

“A thrilling experience for student dancers and a great opportunity to get up close and personal with the [Moscow Ballet] principals and soloists,” Regina Herald, Barbara Woolsey

Moscow Ballet announces open auditions on Tues. October 7. Ages 7-11 years audition from 5-6pm and ages 12-16 years audition from 6-7pm at West Valley Conservatory of Ballet, 13945 W. Grand Avenue, Suite 104, Surprise, AZ 85374. Moscow Ballet “Dance with Us” Audition Director Carolina Siscanu will select 60 student dancers to perform side-by-side with the professional company of 40 Russian dancers. Students are cast in ancillary roles of Party Children, Mice, Snowflakes, Angels, and more. They will perform in the Great Russian Nutcracker Dec 17, 7:00pm at Comerica Theatre in Phoenix. Applicants must be between 7 and 16 years old, have at least one year of ballet training, dress in dance attire and may bring Pointe shoes. The experience of working and performing with professional ballerinas is often a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for aspiring dancers. “The payoff at the end of the rehearsals is the opportunity to be part of Christmas magic, to dance under shimmering lights with award-winning Russian dancers against exquisite hand-painted sets. It’s great for the kids. They get to dance in a professional production,” affirms Margaret Engle of Charlottesville Ballet School. Register at www.nutcracker.com/youth-auditions/sign-up-to-audition .
