Recital Lead and Supporting Characters Cast List!

Thank you to every dancer who attended our No Place Like Home auditions!

 

We were so impressed by the bravery, enthusiasm, and heart each dancer brought into auditions. Casting decisions were especially difficult this year with so many talented auditionees, and we’re proud of every single performer who stepped up to audition!

​

Every MSSoD student will perform in our recital, No Place Like Home: A Journey to Oz. The list below features the dancers selected for our lead and supporting character roles, who will help bring the story of Oz to life.

​

Teachers will be talking with dancers about their roles and how each part fits into the story. Every casting decision was made with great care and consideration for each dancer’s strengths and schedules.

​

We can’t wait to see all our students bring their own special magic to the stage!
