Rehearsals are well on their way – everyone seems to be having a good time learning new (and old) grand jetes and pirouettes sprinkled in with some ballroom dances and soldier marches!
As the Nutcracker season swiftly approaches there are a few things you should be aware of:
By November, there will be afternoon rehearsals with the company dancers
(from 3:00 onwards.) It may be necessary to make arrangements with your
child/youth’s school in order to attend these rehearsals. I will post the
schedules as they become available.
Gavin’s plan for the Thanksgiving weekend is to take Thursday through Saturday off.
Be prepared to rehearse on Sunday, November 27th.
The week prior to opening night will be full of daytime tech and dress rehearsals
for which your child/youth may need to be excused from school. If needed, I can
provide a letter for your school. (We open Saturday, December 10th.)
Final casting for the Nutcracker will be announced after the Thanksgiving holiday.
