The Performing Companies at MAD are distinct and select groups of dancers consisting of students who are skilled, serious about dance, and willing to work very hard. Company placement is based on teacher recommendations as well as audition criteria. 

 

Company Members are required to be present in all classes and at all rehearsals and performances that are scheduled. In addition, Company members are required to attend all workshops and competitions that we will enter. They also agree to attend our mandatory Summer Session and are expected to participate in our Intensive Workshop that is scheduled in the Summer. We do expect these students to make an additional commitment to dance in the form of additional classes, workshops, competitions, and costumes. We usually enter several competitions per season. We also perform at various functions in the community as often as possible. Participation in Company is for the serious dancer who is motivated to turn potential into talent.

​

Many of MAD's Performing Company Members dance on their varsity poms team, have graduated and gone on to dance at a collegiate level, or dance professionally across the country and around the world!
