Nutcracker Auditions for Children & Dancers
June 17 & 18, 2025
I am thrilled to announce that The Nutcracker will be returning to the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium this December for its 33rd season! Most of you know that I am the choreographer/artistic director of the production, which is co-produced by Symphony Nova Scotia, Mermaid Theatre and Halifax Dance. We will be holding auditions on June 17 & 18 at Halifax Dance. Audition information is below. For those of you who are close to 5 ft. tall, I would encourage you to attend both the children’s and dancers’ auditions. If you have any questions about the audition process or the intensive don’t hesitate to contact me.
