Be Part of the Magic!

Westchester Ballet Company invites dancers ages 6–18 to audition on August 30 or September 12 for roles in its 2026 production of The Nutcracker. Adults ages 18 and older are invited to audition on September 11 for roles in the Party Scene. These roles are performed on a volunteer basis.

Performance Dates: December 20 and 21
Venue: Tarrytown Music Hall

Dancers are welcome to audition regardless of where they receive their training. Under the artistic direction of Elias Re and Aneriz Re, with Rehearsal Director Cassia Lopes, this beloved holiday production offers dancers the opportunity to grow artistically, perform with a dedicated cast, and bring a timeless tradition to life onstage.

Rehearsals will take place from September through December on Friday evenings and Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Rehearsal days will vary depending on each dancer’s role or roles.

Pre-registration is required and opens August 1, 2026. Please note that auditioning does not guarantee a role. Participation fees apply for youth dancers, and financial assistance is available.

We look forward to welcoming dancers from across the community and discovering the talent, energy, and joy they will bring to this year’s production!
