Join the Cast of Cinderella

Children ages 5-8* can join the cast of Cinderella! Dancers participate as Fairy Godmother’s fairy attendants, helping make the magic happen for our beloved Cinderella in the garden scene at the end of Act I. Fairies appear in the garden as Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother magically prepares Cinderella for the ball with the help of the Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter fairies. This is a fun way for your child to participate in our spring production. No prior dance experience is required.

Each dancer will perform in 1 of our 2 performances. Dancers will learn basic ballet technique and enjoy a unique performance experience. This is a good choice for children considering adding ballet as a new activity, as well as for Metropolitan Youth Ballet’s Joy of Dance, Creative Dance, Pre-Primary and Preparatory level students.

Registration opens Friday, February 7. Space is limited. Register by March 14.

*Children must be 5 years old as of March 21, 2025.
