THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT NUTCRACKER PARTICIPATION:

• Casting decisions are final and are not open to discussion. Dancers or families who dispute casting decisions will not be allowed to participate in this performance workshops. 
   
• Students may be cast in more than one role, may have understudy roles in addition to their regular role/s, or may be assigned a role that is double-cast. By opting in for this performance workshop, dancers are committing to come to all rehearsals, costume fittings, and performances assigned to them. Failure to do so will result from dismissal from the show. **Leniency granted if a student needs to quarantine due to COVID exposure.**
   
• Students who are asked to understudy a role are expected to attend all rehearsals for their understudy role and learn all its choreography as with their own regular role/s. In the event an emergency arises and the dancer originally cast in a given role is unable to perform, their understudy may be asked to go on in their stead.
