FALL INTO DANCE AND
LAKE LURE DANCE FESTIVAL AUDITIONS
SATURDAY, JUNE 3, 2023
2:00-4:30PM
Auditions for the Asheville Ballet's Fall Concert (which is September 8 -10, 2023), as well as for the Lake Lure Dance Festival (September 16) will be held:
Saturday, June 3, from 2:00 – 4:30 pm at our studio at 4 Weaverville Highway, Asheville.
Please fill out an audition form in advance.
All advanced dancers, ages 18 and up, are welcome! Audition fee is $10 (cash or check: The Asheville Ballet).
The audition will begin with a Ballet barre at 2:00, after which dancers will learn excerpts presented by our resident choreographers. Dancers interested in performing en pointe should bring pointe shoes. Dance sneakers may be helpful, if you have them.
If you have any questions, or if you want to be involved but are away during the audition, please contact us as soon as possible!
The Asheville Ballet auditions dancers on a show-to-show basis and often invites selected performers to continue performing in future productions throughout the year. We offer a number of paid adult professional dancing positions as well as college apprenticeships.
Please email us or call our studio office at (828)252-4761 with any questions. We also accept emailed video/headshot/dance shot/resume submissions to dance@ashevilleballet.com.
We will review your material and contact you promptly!
In addition, students from both the Academy of Ballet and Contemporary Dance as well as other studios in the Western North Carolina region are cast both in ensemble and soloists roles in our productions. In other words, you do not have to be a student attending classes with the Academy of Ballet and Contemporary Dance to perform with us. We are delighted to include the entire community in their passion to perform, both professional and student alike. All that we ask is that students are taking at least two dance technique classes per week, somewhere, in order to maintain the high-caliber of artistry that we have become so known for.
