CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

 

2024 Winter Dance Concert (The Gathering)

Casting

 

The following is the casting for the 2024 Winter Dance Performance. Thanks to all who attended. There are many complicated factors that go into casting any given show. If you were not cast in this production, please don’t let it discourage you from auditioning in the future. We present a show each semester so please come back and audition in late January for our Spring Fear No Art production. I also encourage everyone interested in dancing, to sign up for a dance class. 

 

Please read carefully:

 

1)        Rehearsals begin the week of Sept 9th

2)        I still have a few small solo parts to cast and will be following up with cast members based on availability and time.

3)        If you want to earn college credit for participating in the show, please let me know.

4)        Review the cast list for your name. [Note days, times and rooms.] Some rooms are still being determined and I will follow up with rooms updates later.

5)        Email me at valpert@clcillinois.edu no later than Thursday, September 5th confirming or rejecting your participation in each dance that you are cast in.

a)         Please do not say “I am confirming all.” Be specific, like  I am confirming Tues with Valerie at 11:30-1 pm and Sat with Ivan from 11:20-12:30. 

b)        Please let me know how you want your name to appear in the Playbill. [Also, let me know if you have preferred pronouns.]

c)        I will be adding your email to a group contact list to follow up with information, so please use an email that you check often. 

6)        If I do not receive an email by the deadline, I will assume that you have dropped out of the show, but I always prefer a courtesy communication email.

CASTING

 

WOW! What an amazing Audition/Submission turnout. The following is the casting for the 2024 Fear No Art Festival. Thanks to all who attended. There are many factors that go into casting. If you were not cast in this production, it was most likely due to scheduling conflicts. Please come back in August for our Winter Danceproduction. 

 

Please read carefully and respond appropriately.

 

I have already emailed everybody who attended the audition to inform them whether they were cast in the show. If you were cast in the show, you were asked to confirm your participation by Friday, Feb 3. 

 

If you did not receive an email from me, then email me immediately at valpert@clcillinois.edu to find out if you have been cast in the show. If I don’t hear back from individuals in a timely manner, then I have no choice but to replace their role.
