Interested in being in a featured character role? 

• Skaters freeskate 4 and above are encouraged to participate in an interpretive tryout on September 24th at 9 am or 10 am (times assigned by 5 pm on September 23rd) 

What is an interpretive tryout?

• Skaters will have 10 to 15 minutes to warm up their skills. 

• Then skaters will be asked to stand still and listen to their tryout music selected by the show director. The music will be unknown until this time. 

• Then the music will play for a second time while skaters make-up a program on the spot to the music. 

• All skaters will exit the ice until their turn to try out. 

• Each skater will have 1 more listening (listening only, no skating) opportunity before their turn to skate for their tryout.

• Skaters will be judged on: variety of moves (5 points possible), use of the ice (5 points possible), posture and carriage (5 points possible), and theatrical expression (10 points possible) by a panel of 2-3 coaches. Skaters will not be judged on difficulty of moves.

• Skaters will have the opportunity to voice their desired feature roles during their tryout skate. 

• Roles assignments will be given by the director based on their skater’s score during tryouts and the skater’s desired roles. 

• Skating competition wear is encouraged but not required for tryouts. 

Features will pay an additional fee ($50 Heartland Members, $75 Nonmembers) for the additional ice time and instruction given outside of general cast practices. 

Enrollment for Featured Skater Tryouts is now closed.
