If you are not chosen to perform a Guard Role, you will have other opportunities to be a part of our "Nutcracker Experience" at the San Jose CPA. Everyone can be a part of the Banner, during the performance. Also, pending on costumes, you can be Nutty the Nutcracker, the Mouse King, or a character wrangler before performances.

Ladies can also play a part in the "Nutcracker Experience" by dressing up as "The Pocket Lady" (who gives free toys to children) or as a character wrangler. Also, anyone can help decorate the San Jose CPA lobby for the holiday season during our technical rehearsal period.

Come to the audition, or if you are only interested in being part of the "Nutcracker Experience," please contact Deborah Weber via email to: dweber@balletsanjose.org
