How many Rockettes have there been?
There are a total of 80 Rockettes—40 Rockettes in each cast, and only 36 of us perform onstage at a time. Each cast has four “swings” who can fill in the spots for nine of the women on the line.
What do Rockettes do the rest of the year?
"Many of the Rockettes are professional dancers and/or actors, so they stay busy throughout the year," the outlet writes. "Plus, they do charity work, such as visiting children's hospitals, supporting the troops, and putting on benefit shows."
Thereof, how long can you be a rockette? Technically, there's no maximum age limit, but Rockettes typically aim to hit the goal of at least 10 years on the stage before hanging up their tap shoes. Retired Rockettes often remain with the company, working backstage as dressers or teaching dance classes during the Radio City Summer Intensive workshop.
People also ask do rockettes actually sing?
Do the Rockettes actually sing? Yes! Their singing quality is less important than their ability to sing and dance at the same time (I initially thought they weren't singing – that it was recorded.
How short is the shortest Rockette? And although I was the smallest of the bunch (the shortest Rockette is 5 ft. 6 in.), I felt like I finally fit in - even if it was just for a few hours. Watch the video above to see how I did, and go see The Rockettes in the New York Spectacular, which runs from June 15th until August 7th!
People also ask what size do rockettes have to be?
The girls do more than 160 kicks per show and perform in up to four shows a day. The Rockettes need to be a certain height – between 5'6" and 5'10 ½". It may look like all the dancers are the same height, but they're not.
Is there a dress code for the Rockettes? No dress code. I suggest Ellen's Stardust Diner on Broadway. The waiters sing and the food is great and reasonable.

Rockettes have to be at least 18 to audition, and they must re-audition each year.
How hard is it to get into the Rockettes? The requirements for being a Rockette are to be 5'6″-5'10.5″ tall and proficient in ballet, jazz and tap. If a dancer does not meet those height requirements, it is out her control.

One Rockette used a fitness tracker and discovered that she burned 1,000 calories every show.
