Wanna join Tufts Tap? Come audition on Friday 9/6 at 4 PM or on Saturday 9/7 at 11:30 AM! Both auditions will take place in the Sophia Gordon Multipurpose Room! Make sure to bring water and are ready to have some fun! If you don’t have your tap shoes that’s not a problem! We welcome auditions in sneakers as well (our tip is to choose a sneaker with a hard sole to make it easier!) Can’t wait to see you there!! 🕺🕺
