Entrance Requirements and Auditions

FIRST AUDITION DATES FOR 2012-2013

February 27& 28, 2012

Entrance Requirements
Admission to the Program is by audition. Applicants should have completed an intermediate level of training in classical ballet, and/or contemporary dance, and show professional potential for a career in contemporary dance.  An accepted applicant must hold a high school diploma, or qualify as a mature student, or as an accelerated student with the University of Winnipeg.

Upon entry, students are placed according to their level in technique and performance. Most students are placed in First Year. However, sufficiently advanced students may enter the Program at the Second Year level.

Auditions
Applicants may apply in one of the following ways:

1) In-person audition
We highly recommend that applicants attend the two-day audition in February/March. Students participate in two morning audition classes each day and are welcome to visit and observe the Program in rehearsals in the afternoon. This provides the opportunity for the applicants to familiarize themselves with the Program. Out-of-province students may also do a two-day audition at an alternative date through special arrangements. To arrange to audition in person, or to make inquiries about the Program, contact Charlene Kulbaba, Office Manager, by email or phone. After the initial contact, please submit a completed application form along with a resumé.

2) Video audition
Alternatively, students may apply by video.

To audition by video, please contact us by phone or email. After the initial contact, the applicant should submit the video, according to the application form directions. The applicant should also submit a completed application form and a resumé.
