The Hampton Ballet Theatre School will host auditions on Friday evening for an elite summer 2022 program run by the American Academy of Ballet.

Auditions are 6 to 8:30 p.m. at the dance studio at 213 Butter Lane in Bridgehampton, and can also be submitted via video. A list of required ballet skills and an advance sign-up form can be found online here.

The summer program curriculum covers classical ballet, pointe training, and partnering in classes and small-group coaching settings. For sessions longer than one week, it also introduces students to other forms of dance, including contemporary, musical theater, and folk styles. Guest performances from professional company dancers, including talent from the New York City Ballet and American Ballet Theater, are also planned.

The American Academy of Ballet is based in New York City. Its contact information is available at this link.
