Yes! Lots of good ballet ju ju for everyone!
We just got an email that our DD was cast in 2 roles - but one as a party boy (we don't know the other one yet). I guess there were not enough boys that tried out to fill 3 casts so they are casting girls in some of the boy roles. She is excited that she got a role(s) but doesn't know how to feel yet about playing a boy. I guess we will see what the other part is that she is given. Good luck to everyone!
Our parent portal is still blank. Does that mean my DC didn't get a part?
Ours too, I was wondering/assuming the same
They have not posted results yet.

I'm surprised they are having kids fill two roles when it seems like there are going to be plenty of disappointed kids with no roles.
Ditto about the roles... Did anyone else get an email?

If she doesn't want to play a boy, you can probably tell them. They can reassign, and she can still have a part.

Are we supposed to find out by email or on the parent portal?

They must be getting close, the home page announcement is updated that they are uploading rehearsals!

In the past it's always been at the same time. I'm sure they're busy right now setting up every profile with roles, rejections and schedules. And whenever it's done, they're have them all go live at once. The update said BY 11pm, so it could be before by an hour or so but I wouldn't count on it this afternoon.
