SUMMER DANCE PLATFORM AUDITIONS

How to audition

There are two ways to apply / audition for Summer Dance Platform.

– Attend a LIVE audition
– Submit a VIDEO Application

Pre-registration is required for all scheduled auditions and will close prior to audition date.

Priority acceptance is given to those dancers attending a LIVE audition.

There is limited capacity for LIVE auditions and we recommend early registration.

Audition results will be sent by email within one to two weeks following the audition. Accepted dancers are required to confirm their spot and submit their deposit by the deadline in their acceptance notification.

We will have a waitlist for dancers not immediately accepted into Summer Dance Platform. Accepted applicants who have not submitted their deposit will have their place offered to dancers on the waiting list.

All dancers applying to Summer Dance Platform must be at least age 15 by JUL 13 / 2025. No exceptions will be made.
