Breakdown

Equity Ensemble Dancers:

Men and women, for possible future replacements in the currently running 25th Anniversary Tour.

All female dancers should have a degree of innocence about them and look very young (18-25). We need experienced, classically trained dancers. Most of the audition will be on POINTE.

All male dancers must be classical/ballet dancers. They should have solid classical technique with a musical theatre flair. They must be well built and muscular. Seeking strong classical dancers. Not looking for tap dancers, jazz dancers, or ''hoofers.''

In addition, there is the principal role of ‘Meg’ who is a member of the Corps de Ballet. She should appear to be between 16 and 18 years old. The range is mezzo-soprano to G.
