The holiday wonderment of The Nutcracker is certainly magical from the audience, but the experience is even more profound from the perspective of the dancers. Baton Rouge Ballet Theatre is holding auditions for its 2023 production, inviting children ages eight to fourteen with a variety of dance experience to try out for roles like cherubs, lambs, and more. A limited number of scholarships are available, as well. Forms will also be available at the audition to fill out in person, but dancers are encouraged to apply online or print a scholarship application at batonrougeballet.org/nutcracker-auditions. $10 audition fee, $95 rehearsal fee for each child selected. Here are the audition times:

12:30 pm–1:15 pm: Boys eight years and up

12:45 pm–1:30 pm: Girls eight years old 

1:30 pm– 2:15 pm: Girls nine years old

2:15 pm–3 pm: Girls ten–eleven years old
