ABOUT THE GRAHAM CRACKER AND OUR SEASON:

The Graham Cracker is our original, queer-positive, modern dance parody of the classic winter ballet, the Nutcracker. All dancers and movers are invited to audition regardless of background or experience with modern dance. This year's production of The Graham Cracker will take place on December 6-8 in the Pamela Brown Theatre at Actors Theatre! More detailed information on the time commitment, tech week schedule, and other blackout are outlined in the form below.

If you are accepted into the production, there will be a $150 production fee for participation. If you need financial assistance, please let us know as we have ways to accommodate and don’t want to be cost prohibitive. All fees are waived for active Unlimited Class Card holders.

The Graham Cracker is the start of Ambo's annual performance season. This audition, while primarily for this specific show, is also where we make offers for annual contracts for paid Professional Company Member positions (adults 18+), as well as youth Pre-Professional Company Member (ages 12-17) and Junior Company Member (ages 9-12) positions! If you are interested in auditioning to be a member of the Ambo Dance Theatre Company, you will be able indicate your interest in this form. This is not, however, a requirement for participation!
