ART IN MOTION-
April 7 (6 pm) & 7 (2pm) at ONE Academy Studio Theater
*Tickets available at the door.
Art in Motion is a mixed bill show where dancers showcase the many styles they are studying. An artistic show (not character based), students have the opportunity to work with professional choreographers and intermediate and advanced dancers have the opportunity to create their own works to be showcased in this very special show that is truly art in motion!
CINDERELLA-
June 8 (5 pm) & 9 (2 pm) at the Austin Waldorf School
Cinderella is a story ballet full of beautiful ball gowns, huge sets, bumbling bakers, grace, beauty and hilariously clumsy stepsisters! Join us as Cinderella sees the kindness and courage her mother taught her bring her more than she ever dreamed of! To be considered for principal and soloist roles you must be present at this weekend's audition. However, if you would like to participate, but are unable to make it, we are happy to set up an individual audition ($20).
If you are NEW to ONE Academy or considering joining us, and are interested in learning about our many performance opportunities, please email Meredith: meredith@oneartsaustin.com

OTHER INFORMATION:
Class Requirements: Dancers are required to take technique classes based in the style of the roles they will be performing.
For example:
Rehearsals will be held on Saturdays between 11:00 am and 7:30 pm. On occasion rehearsals can be called on Fridays from 4:00-9:30, but this is rare. Rehearsal times vary each week depending on the number of roles and type of roles. Dancers may not miss more than 2 rehearsals in a row. After missing two rehearsals, dancers will need to schedule a private lesson with the appropriate teacher for a fee of $40/half hour and $75/hr. It is important to note that when a dancer misses rehearsals it affects formations, timing and the acting cues of the other dancers involved. If you have any questions or concerns, please email Meredith: meredith@oneartsaustin.com
Important Dates:
Dancers will have rehearsals every Saturday between January 19 and June 9 with the exception of March 16. In place of March 16, we will rehearse on Sunday, March 24 from 12:30-9:00 pm to allow families longer travel time over the Spring Break. Dress Rehearsal for Art in Motion will be on Saturday, April 6 in the morning (Times TBA). There will be a short break between the dress rehearsal and show on Saturday, April 7 (6 pm).
For Cinderella, "Tech rehearsal" will be on THURSDAY, June 7, 4:30-9:30 pm and Dress Rehearsal on Saturday, June 8, 9:30 am-3:30 pm at the Austin Waldorf School. Shows are at 5 pm on Saturday and 2 pm on Sunday.
Other costs: Dancers are responsible for their own shoes, tights and flesh colored leotards to be worn under their costumes. Depending on the roles they are cast in, dancers may be required to have 2 colors of ballet shoes, character shoes, pointe shoes (also could be required to be colored), tap shoes, or jazz shoes as well as colored socks or a button down shirt. T-shirts, photo CD's and/or DVD's will also be available for purchase.
Class Requirements: Dancers are required to take technique classes based in the style of the roles they will be performing.
For example:
- Ballet roles require the appropriate level ballet class.
- Pointe roles will be required to attend the appropriate level of ballet technique classes, appropriate level of pointe classes and strength/flexibility and conditioning each week. If something interrupts this serious level of training, the dancer is expected to use other levels to make up the missed classes. This is for the dancers safety as well as proficiency and success in their performance.
- Contemporary/Modern: Dancers performing roles in these styles will be required to attend the appropriate level of technique class for that style.
