Each year, aspiring dancers from various states converge for the Rockettes' open call audition, showcasing their passion and perseverance. Among them is Alyssa Gallagher, who has auditioned ten times, demonstrating dedication to her dream. The Rockettes, established in 1925, transformed precision dance into an art form at Radio City Music Hall with their signature kickline. Over time, they evolved, debuting the Christmas Spectacular in 1933, initially performing year-round as part of a variety show, establishing their legacy in American entertainment.
The Rockettes began in 1925 in St. Louis, where they were a company of 16 dancers called 'The Rockets.' Precision dance was considered 'new-fangled' and 'cool.'
The first Christmas Spectacular debuted in 1933, but unlike the present day, the Rockettes also performed year-round as part of a variety show before movies.
