Australia - General Moulin Rouge en>fr fr>en By ninaballerina19 Comments: 76, member since Fri Apr 27, 2007On Tue Feb 16, 2010 03:39 AM
Hey guys
It's my dream to dance at the moulin rouge or the lido in paris one day 
....just wondering whether anyone knows if they're coming to Sydney this year to tour and hold auditions as they have previously done. Also, what are the requirements in regards to height, weight and especially training
Thanks so much in advance- your reply is appreciated!

The requirements for height are quite strict. I think the minimum height is 5'8" for girls, perhaps even taller. They generally audition in Australia once a year. One of my sister's old students danced there for a few years.

They expect good ballet training and solid technique, though what the dancers end up doing in the shows isn't really that hard, but a lot of stamina is required to get through all the rehearsals and performances. I would anticipate them asking for kicks at the audition. As for criteria, I'd warrant half of it is looks, half of it dance ability.
