Auditions Terms

CAE Audition Director and his team of professionally trained ballet teachers audition children in each city, cast them for various roles in the production during the same day of auditions, share the choreography and instruction materials with the teachers of the local Host Studio, and leave the local Host Ballet Studio to rehearse the children for eight weeks before the performance. Studio owners are pleased to offer students personal exposure to the highly trained Ukrainian dancers and the professional performance experience.

APPLICATION FORMS & FEES

A nonrefundable audition fee of $25.00 is due at the audition, along with the audition form.

The Host Studios will provide the Audition Forms on the auditions.

• Audition Fee of $25.00 may be paid in cash or check or by clicking the 'Pay for Auditions' button below.
