​

Please submit your audition form before Wednesday, May 7th.  If you do not hear from us with your audition schedule by Wednesday, May 14th - please email fredericksburgdance@gmail.com to make sure we received your form! 

All FDC dancers must be enrolled in Summer Classes in order to be considered for the company. 

​

• May 20th - Audition Combinations Learned
  Each group will be given scheduled times where they will learn their audition combinations and will be given their audition numbers. 

• May 22nd - Auditions
  Dancers will audition the combos they learned the day before and may also be asked to perform various skill sets including extensions, leaps, turns and improv. 

AUDITIONS: 

• There is a $20 Audition Fee for each dancer that auditions - audition fees are non-refundable and must be paid by May 20th.  If you pay by cash - please put it in an envelope with your dancer’s name on it. 

• Dancers will be required to wear a black leotard and black dance shorts - bring all necessary shoes. 

• Dancers will wear their hair in a tight low pony tail or bun.  

• Dancers will be divided into small groups based on age and level and will be given their audition number on May 20th. 

• Each group will learn 2 short combinations (Either Tap/Jazz or Tap/Contemporary) If your dancer is only auditioning for a certain genre, they do not have to audition every combo - for example - if they are only auditioning for a tap group, they do not have to audition the jazz or contemporary combinations. 

• Combinations will be performed in front of the judges on their scheduled audition day/time. Dancers will be expected to be able to perform the short combinations without assistance. 

• There will be a panel of judges made up of FDC's board of directors and teachers. The panel will watch each group and each dancer will be given a score and will be assessed based on their audition. Scores are not made public and are only shared with the directors. 

 

 

Please note, being part of an audition process doesn't guarantee placement in the company or in a group. Final decisions are based on an number of factors and it is important to manage expectations and view auditions as valuable, fun experiences regardless of the outcome. Competitive Company Audition results will be posted by July 1st. If your dancer does make the company, they may be selected for one group or multiple groups. Once group placement is released, parents and dancers will have the opportunity to accept or decline participation in the groups they were selected for.  

We look forward to seeing all of our new and returning candidates for auditions this season! If you have any questions at all, please feel free to email fredericksburgdance@gmail.com or reach out to us at any time!
