RehearsalsRehearsals will start the weekend of September 14, 2019.
We will most likely rehearse the children/adult sections on Saturdays, and the Intermediate/Advanced ballet on Sundays. Adults will start rehearsing in October. The rehearsals will be more intense in December. |
RehearsalsStudio Rehearsal Schedule
Since "Nutcracker" is an extra performance opportunity and not a full studio recital, several different rules apply. When selecting dancers for specific roles, we must consider many things, the most important of which is talent, ability, behavior, regular attendance, and conduct. We will be in direct communication with each of the local studios to make sure the dancers are attending their regular classes. We will also work with parents to make sure grades do not fall. Rehearsals are fairly intense. EVERYTHING must be accomplished in a very short time - only 13 weeks. Therefore, we DO NOT have time to deal with problematic dancers. Everyone must be able to stay focused during their entire rehearsal period. Your dancer should be prepared to give his/her full attention/effort to participate in "Nutcracker". No one should begin rehearsals only to drop out when something else becomes available. |
