Auditions

 

 

We have dates for our new auditions! The dates are Saturday, April 17th and Sunday, April 18th. BOTH days are MANDATORY. Saturday will be the workshop to learn the audition routine, and Sunday will be the actual audition. Each dancer must attend both of the sessions.  If this does not work for you, please email us, and we will figure out an alternative plan (for example, a video audition). These auditions are for the 2010-2011 season. If you have any other questions, please email us: ugaredhotz@hotmail.com

 

 

Auditions will be held at the DanceFX, Inc. It is located at 1260 S. Milledge Ave. C1. Athens, GA 30605.
