Frequently Asked Questions
- Why do we have Audition Fee? In the past, we used to have admission fee for everyone. We brought back a fee
for dance groups to help pay for expenses. Each person pays this fee only once
regardless of the number of items they are participating in.
- Does the participant pay the Audition Fee for every item auditioned? No. Each person pays the fee only once.
- Why do choreographers need to pay the Audition fee? What if there are
multiple choreographers for an item? Does every choreographer have to
pay?
In the system, to be a part of a dance item, the participant (Dancer,
choreographer or any other role) should be a registered, Waiver signed and
Audition Fee paid member. The system will not permit addition of a person
otherwise. In addition, the choreographer may be a dancer in the same or
another item. So, everyone has to pay the fee once.
- On what conditions a dance item will be rejected?
We encourage every person to participate and give them a chance to perform.
Rejection is based on scores received during the audition. Only lowest scoring
groups may be rejected.
- How do we submit the costumes pictures for our performances?
The best option is for at least one of your performers to wear the costume in the
audition video. If it is not possible for any reason, you may add a slide at the end
of the audition video or email to Nuv Yug Cultural Committee email id with the Item
ID.
- What is the maximum time duration for every item?
The time duration limits are described on the Guidelines page. Please adhere to
these limits. If your item exceeds the time limit, it may be abruptly cut off at the
end by the committee.

- Can we add new performers after audition?
It depends on the item, but we advise not to count on being able to do that.
Adding new participants or moving participants from one dance item to
another is at the discretion of the Cultural Committee. Also, late registrations
need to pay the Late Audition Fee of $17 instead of $12.
- How are we awarding the Nuv Yug Dancing Stars award, is it like 1st,
2nd or 3rd place? What is the selection process?
All winning teams will be awarded the same Nuv Yug Dancing Stars award.
There is no 1st, 2nd or 3rd ranking. The choreographer and team will be
recognized during the grand finale segment. The selection process starts with
the auditions and continues to the day of performance.
- What will be the duration of the prime-time slot?
The time limits described in Guidelines apply. Please contact the Cultural
Committee, if your item requires an exception to this rule.
