The Coasting Along Theatre Society is pleased to announce open auditions for the Nutcracker, with choreography by David and Kathleen
Holmes. Professional and non-professional roles will be cast.
The 2019 run will include 6 public performances, and 2 school shows featuring over 100 dancers.
What is so wonderful about the Nutcracker is that all the dancers on the Coast are welcome! All the dance schools send their dancers to join the production - and they work together to create an outstanding production! Everyone is welcome! We even have dancers commute from Vancouver and Calgary - it's that much fun to work hard!
Child and adult roles are available. Male dancers are also needed.
If you cannot attend the audition and would like to be in the production - please contact us at 604-989-6050, or use the contact tab above.

Audition Check-In and Registration
Please be aware that you should arrive at least 30 minutes prior to the time period slotted for your child's age group. We will need to check your child in, assign an audition number and measure your child’s height.
Audition
Each group's audition is choreography from the Nutcracker. Once an audition has begun, late arrivals will not be admitted. In order for the artistic staff to fairly evaluate all children, it is important that your child stay for the duration of the audition. You are welcome to stay at the studio during your child’s audition, but you will not be able to view your child’s audition.
Audition Attire
Either ballet attire (leotard, tights, and ballet shoes) or other dance/exercise apparel is fine. Please have hair pulled back in a bun.
Posting of Audition Results
Audition results will be posted by Friday September 13th. We will email the results, or call the dancers personally.
Fees for Nutcracker
If your child auditions successfully and you choose to have him/her participate in The Nutcracker, there is a non-refundable membership fee of $20 which must be paid by cash or check. If more than one member of an immediate family is cast in the Nutcracker the fee is $25/family.
The costume itself will remain the property of the ballet company. You will be expected to pay for your child's tights, shoes, make-up, hair products and other personal items.
Please read the handbook before auditioning. You can find it here: nutcracker_2019_handbook.pdf
