2025 Audition Forms for Cinderella
Performances of Cinderella are May 23 & 24, 2025 (subject to change).
We welcome all eligible dancers to audition. There are exciting roles for boys and girls at all levels, and the experience of participating in a full-length ballet is an extraordinary one.
- Auditions for levels 1B - 6B are Friday, January 17, at the MYB studio
- Auditions for levels Primary A - 1A are Saturday, January 18, at the MYB studio
- Dancers must be at least age 7 as of January 1, 2025, and enrolled in MYB's Primary A Level ballet or above to audition.
-
If your dancer does not meet the age/level requirements, or wants a more low-key introduction to performing, consider the “Be a Fairy” program for dancers age 5-8. Details are available on our Be a Fairy page. Dancers intending to enroll in the Be a Fairy program do not need to audition or fill out an audition form.
- All dancers who wish to audition must fill out the online Audition Forms by Thursday, January 16 (this includes the Production Agreement, Photo Release, and Family Volunteer Agreement).
- If your dancer cannot attend the audition, please contact the studio to make alternate arrangements.
There will be a meeting for parents of auditioning dancers during each audition time slot, where we will discuss important information for both new and veteran families. At least 1 parent/guardian per family is required; if your family has dancers in several audition groups, you need only attend one meeting.
Audition groupings are for the sole purpose of balancing numbers of dancers in the studio for each audition time slot. They do not affect the students’ casting or division.
