Audition

 Who can participate?:  9th through 12th grade students who like to dance! All styles and levels of training are welcome. No prior training needed. Students interested in being a Student Choreographer must be seniors, and have been in Danceblast before.

How do I audition?: Auditions take place in late November. Wear comfortable clothes you can move in. Register online at Final Forms HERE.

What do auditions look like? Different choreographer's and styles will teach choreography each day of auditions. Dancers will learn the choreography and perform it for the choreographers right after. You are encouraged to attend all the days of auditions to have the best chance of being in the show! The cast list will be posted following auditions.

When does it take place?: Danceblast 2026 performances are February 26-28.

When do we rehearse?: Rehearsals are after school from either 2:15-3:30 or 3:30-4:45, Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday. Each dances rehearses one day per week, for a total of 8-9 rehearsals before the show. Rehearsals begin December 1.

How many dances are there/can I be cast in? What kinds of dances are in the show?: You can be cast in up to three dances. The show includes a variety of dance styles from hip hop, to jazz, to lyrical ballet and modern pieces. You may not pick which dances you are in; the choreographers and I cast the show.

How do I get more information?:  Stay tuned to the announcements and if you have any other questions, contact the Danceblast advisor, Lauren Molinaro at lmolinaro@upsd83.org.
