About
Ballet Collective Australia (BCA) invites dancers aged approximately 15+ years to audition for our 2026 Senior Performance Cast.BCA is a national pre-professional performance program bringing together talented young dancers from across Australia. Our goal is to work together in a company environment, not compete against each other.
Successful dancers will train in their home state with an industry professional across several rehearsal weekends in May, June & July, before joining dancers from around the country to perform together Sydney in August 2026.
Our goal is to provide serious young dancers with a professional rehearsal experience, exposure to leading artists, and the opportunity to work as part of a national ensemble.

The Senior audition class is designed to assess technique, musicality, performance quality, focus and coachability in a supportive studio environment.
Dancers will participate in:
• 1.5 hour Classical Ballet Class
• 30 minute Dortmund Ballett repertoire

The full audition runs for approximately 3 hours.
