A lot of newcomers this year, they would have said something. Last Nutcracker there was an email sent after the audition that due to the reduced roles, more students would not be cast than usual. I kept it from DD until the morning of casting day and I'm glad. She was besides herself all day long, couldn't have imagined days of that.

They haven't said. I'm assuming it is!
I hope so! Better chance for a "good" role and fewer castings to deal with

I already told my kid we are not checking until Thursday AM. Mommy needs to go to bed before that.

What a tease, in my compulsive refreshing I saw they updated the announcement page and deluded myself into thinking they made the announcement about roles early!

My poor DD gets it stuck in her head that she only gets the "bad parts for kids who can't dance"
It's always a blow for her to find out she is not a coveted party girl, but always has fun none the less
Can we petition for a Monday update this year?
I'm totally already refreshing the home page, even though I know it won't be updated yet
Ok, so I’m not the only one?! Whew. Lol.

Plenty! It's been a long time since my child was PB3, is it a big group this year?
Not the PP, but also have a PB3 DD and was wondering the same because it looked like there was a big group of kids at the audition. I’ve no idea how the group size compares to prior years, but it seemed like a lot of dancers to me. My DD said there were a lot of people in the room. Are PB3 dancers ever cast outside of the mushroom and bee roles? Seems like the odds of being cast are lower for their level if they are only eligible for those two?
I know numbers were smaller in the cast last year with COVID, but previously there were like 6 (maybe 8?) bees in each show - times 6 casts - that's 36 bees (48 if it was 8)
And the same for mushrooms.
So anywhere from 72 to 96 spots. Do you think it was a bigger group that that?
Maybe not. So hard to tell really with the way the drop off/pick up was structured and I didn’t stick around outside to eyeball it super closely. I’m mostly basing my observation on the large number of adults outside the building when we walked up to check-in and remember thinking oh wow this is a lot more people than I imagined would be here.
