We were Ruby cast one year… with siblings. Emerald another year no sibling. I hate the cast/Skill rumor. More people should share variations in casting. How has your jewel changed?

Hang on I thought they were all supposed to be considered equal???


The casts are fairly 'equal' and there's no promotion into another cast. Ruby tends to have the Tea Party show, that's the only correlation I've seen.

Hopefully not injury related…


sounds like its soldiers that she has seen - not a particularly injury prone dance


DD is a soldier and says she hasn't seen this in her group.

Agreed — especially with shows beginning late November.


Parent portal still says the 24th, so perhaps its not changed

Can we appeal to Donna?


I don't think imploring her to hurry up when they're likely trying to get it out as fast as they can will help. Late Oct is already earlier than prior years.


I was joking, I'm inpatient, not unreasonable. But as I recall towards the end of October is the norm for cast announcement. I just want it to be sooner

Hey there are boy dancers! I am also interested and love going to dance performances. Our family loves the Nutcracker but we can't dance.

How would you like it if someone said thank god I have 3 girls over a post about the football team?

Your comment was unnecessary and rude.


Interestingly, none of the boy dancer parents seem to be posting here. I don't know what kind of roles they get but maybe everyone is just happy with them year after year, lol.


Have any boy dancer moms identified themselves as such?


Boy mom here. Yes, very happy.
