Conservatory Auditions

CityDance Conservatory is an audition-entry program, either through an in-person, in-class, or video audition. Our Programming Directors evaluate each dancer’s technical skill, artistry, physical readiness, and training history to determine placement across our programs.

Interested in Auditioning?

We don’t currently have a scheduled audition date, but that doesn’t mean the process has to wait. Submit a video audition anytime, or inquire about in-class auditions.
