REHEARSAL INFORMATION
Rehearsal for FMBallet productions typically take place Saturday late afternoons, or Sunday afternoons. Advance dancers may be asked to attend Wednesday night FMBallet rehearsals.
Rehearsal schedules are released at least 2 weeks in advance and can be found on the FMBallet website (most up-to-date) on our Calendar Page.
Due to the limited amount of rehearsal time, missed rehearsals may mean dismissal from the production. This is nothing against a dancer, it is just that we rehearsal this production in less than 50 hours from start to finish. And every rehearsal is important. Being apart of the production is a commitment.
We will have rehearsals the week of Thanksgiving. Make sure ALL conflicts from audition date - December 19 is listed on your audition form.
PRODUCTION INFORMATION
NDSU Festival Concert Hall
December 17 - 19, 2021 (4 shows!)
Dress rehearsals will be held at the theatre on Wednesday, December 15 and Thursday, December 16.
Tickets on sale to the public October 1, 2021.
We look forward to creating magic with you this season!
