The Classic Nutcracker 2023 - Cast List
Thank you to everyone who auditioned for this seasons production of The Classic Nutcracker. We had 98 people audition for this seasons production! We are blown away by the talent in this area and we thank everyone for taking the time to audition.
Please note we are unable to take everyone who auditioned. There are many deciding factors when it comes to casting, including costumes available, if a dancer showed us they could perform, and their training and technique. If you were not casted, continue to work hard in your classes and we will see you at our next audition for Alice in Wonderland in January 2024. We also hope you come see this season's production of The Classic Nutcracker.
Costume Fitting
For those of you who see your name on this list, you have a mandatory costume fitting with costume designer Ms. Suzanne Spiese on:

This is VERY important as she needs to see how costumes fit not only and individual dancer, but how it looks in a group, and she often swaps costumes as she sees what fits.
