Carey Compassion Dance Company
We have some fabulous exciting new opportunities in 2023! We will be holding two different productions for dancers at different stages of their performing career.
In 2022 we raised over $20,000 for the Carey Right Track Foundation and Helping Orphans Meet Expenses (H.O.M.E). It was a great achievement and honour to reach that milestone!
Professional Production
Our large production for 2023 will be:
Peter Pan
- Auditions for our experienced dancers will be held on Sunday12th February at 3.00pm with call-backs on Saturday 18th February at 4.30pm.
- There are four performances from the 30th September, 1st, 3rd and 4th October.
- Rehearsals for this performance will be on Saturday afternoons from 4.30pm onwards.
- All age groups welcome to audition.
Dancers may be given the opportunity to learn lifts with our male cast members and will work with dancers from other dance schools to create this fabulous performance. Not all dancers will be needed for all rehearsals. I only request dancers to be present if it is likely I will be working on their part/scenes. There will be more rehearsals in the lead up to the production depending on how we are going, there is also holiday rehearsals that differ to Saturday rehearsals.
I understand that dancers come with other commitments already, please do inform me if a dancer can not make certain rehearsals. I am looking for dancers with a good classical foundation, quick to learn choreography and a good positive attitude. Each year we have a fabulous time, make amazing friends and raise money for our two charities whilst putting on a fabulous performance. 100% of all profits go towards these two charities. There is a small once off fee of $150, this helps cover costumes and running costs.
Auditions are to be held in the Auditorium at Carey Baptist College, Harrisdale with call-backs and rehearsals in the upstairs dance room. Dancers are welcome to audition for both productions.
Amateur Performance
Auditions for our amateur performance will be on Sunday 5th February at 3.00pm with the performance to be on the 24th June 2023. Our amateur performance for 2023 will be:
The Elves and the Shoemaker
All age groups are welcome to audition with rehearsals on Saturday afternoons from 3.00 -4.00pm. This performance is great for beginner dancers, dancers with limited classical technique or limited stage experience. Dancers are welcome to audition and participate in both productions. I will sometimes have dancers that cross over the two productions with a featured part in the junior show and a supporting part in our big show depending on their ability. I am looking for stage presence and a willingness to participate at these auditions.
100% of all profits go towards these two charities. There is a small once off fee of $80, this helps cover costumes and running costs.
Auditions are to be held in the Auditorium at Carey Baptist College, Harrisdale with rehearsals in the upstairs dance room. Dancers are welcome to audition for both productions.

Message from Miss Kate
My dream as a dance teacher and director is to instil a passion of dance, provide opportunities to grow confidence, to kindle and nurture the idea of compassion to others, treating everyone with kindness. My mission is to use dance to engage all age groups. I hope to inspire young dancers and empower them to make an awesome difference in this world whilst achieving their dreams.
