*Jr. Co. only need to attend the August 26 audition. Please note the Stocking rehearsal times. Dancers may be cast in one or both roles.

*Dancers not in Jr. Co. who would like the opportunity are welcome to audition for the stockings or reindeer roles.


There will be between six (6) & eight (8) performances this season. We will attempt to cast and schedule the guest dancers so that they do not have to miss 3 full days of school; however, the dancers will be quite busy on each of those 3 days. Please expect to have to be at the theatre at least part (and sometimes all) of each performance day.

ALL REHEARSALS ARE MANDATORY. DANCERS WHO MISS MORE THAN 2 REHEARSALS (REGARDLESS OF THE REASON) WILL BE REPLACED. ALL FULL CAST/DRESS REHEARSALS ARE MANDATORY.

Note – The Edmonton Festival Ballet is a separate organization from the Edmonton School of Ballet and the Artistic Directors of EFB reserve the right to re-schedule any rehearsals or performances as they see fit or to re-cast any dancers in roles that are most appropriate for our production. This is a professional production and dancers and parents are expected to act accordingly by following all company rules and expectations and by accepting all of the Artistic Directors’ decisions as final.
