DISNEYLAND AUDITIONS

Hi,
I have had lots of questions about the upcoming Disneyland auditions so thought I should shed some light on what you should expect. Stepping Out has auditioned and been accepted by Disneyland and allocated special spots on their performance schedule for 2008. The auditions are now to finalise the team that Stepping Out will be taking with us for this amazing opportunity. AN AUDITION WILL BE HELD IN DUBBO STUDIO on the 18th August at 2.00-2.45pm for Juniors 8 yrs & Under, 2.45pm-3.30pm for Intermediate 9yrs- 12yrs and 3.30-4.30pm for Senior 13yrs & above. This will be an open class and will be filmed to be sent to Disney headquarters and Dance Around the World Head Office. You must be dressed in form fitting dance wear and have your hair secured away from your face. You must bring to this audition a recent photo of yourself, a brief resume of your dancing experience and achievements and a short written response to the question, “Why I should be on the Disneyland Team?” THERE IS A $10 ADMINISTRATION FEE. You should come to the class warmed up (we will not have time to warm you up) and in the class you will be taught several short sequences and also be involved in stretching. We will use the videos as a means of assessing who we think will be our strong performers, the type of choreography that will best suit the candidates and who may be in a position to take on lead roles within the Disney performances. PLEASE ALSO BE AWARE that your teachers have already been watching you in class and assessing your improvement. You shouldn't worry about this audition. Auditions are just opportunities. THE MOST IMPORTANT ATTRIBUTES FOR A DANCER ARE WORK ETHIC AND ATTITUDE. You only feel pride and accomplishment when you are deserving of it. This is an opportunity any performer would leap at and you are incredibly fortunate that this opportunity is within your grasp.
