Premier Dance Auditions Saturday, September 15, 2018 9 a.m. – 1 p.m.The Neighborhood Music School's Premier Dance Company is a pre-professional dance opportunity for dancers ages 12 -18. The program is designed to provide young dancers who are serious about pursuing careers in dance, dance education and production with an opportunity to learn from masters of the field and explore the career path through work study. The dedicated dancers who are chosen for this elite program will be held to professional standards with high expectations including a serious commitment to taking classes in all dance genres, performing several times a year and being a student teacher. Neighborhood Music School's Premier Dance Company members will attend approximately 5 hours of classes per week, including ballet, jazz, repertoire, C.C.I. and ensemble. Dancers in this program will have access to lectures and workshops by professionals on auditioning, hair & make-up, nutrition and resumé writing. As a company, these dancers will act as ambassadors to the NMS community and our community at large, performing at events and doing community service. The intention of this program is for the company members to gain the confidence and experience necessary to have a career in dance.For application please contact Tracey Albert talbert@nmsnewhaven.org
