Recital Audition Sign Up

Sunday Feb 16th between 2:30-7:30PM (EACH ROUTINE ONE HOUR SLOT)

Company,

The time has come that you feel the thrill of an audition. You have been working hard I’ve probably tapped your shoulder in class already. (If not hmmm)(jk).

Audition. Do it. You have nothing to lose only gain. The stakes are low (everyone makes it) but the feelings are high (a rapid heartbeat great for the soul and metabolism!) Your audition helps me decide which routine to cast you in. Can’t make it? Wow how dare you fine you can send in a self tape.

I cannot wait to recreate recital feelings as adults, who may not get to perform in that way again if it weren’t for this sitch. Take advantage of it. Take a chance to take the reins on healing yourself via being BOLD. Invite your family & friends to the recital. Feel the excitement of a backstage dressing room and the taste of hairspray in your mouth (somehow I taste it??)

You must have taken at least 4 Balletcore™ classes in 2024/2025 in order to audition for the recital.

Time Commitment + Financials:
The structure of these inner child healing ballet classes is much like childhood classes that lead up to a recital. At the end of the year we show our family, friends, and neighbors what we’ve been working on in class. This is not a grown up professional dance performance.

While there is no fee to audition, there are several Recital Prep classes per month between now and February, and all cast members are expected to participate in most of them! (You can miss up to 2 no prob but if you need to miss more we should chat.) These are $28 per class.

There’s also a dress rehearsal at the theatre on Wednesday, April 9th 2025, the evening before the recital. There is no class fee for that, but it is mandatory! Mark your calendars now. 🙂

We do pro style costumes – it’s more fun that way! Last year we did this and everyone got to feel the feelings of being up on a stage in front of a large audience in a real costume. Costumes ranged between $50 – $100 each. (Some people were able to find costumes on Poshmark or Depop for less.) Once casts are announced, on the first Recital Prep class we will discuss costumes, as anything that needs to be ordered should be asap! Last year each routine casts had their own costume prep hangouts, if you wanted to just sayin.
