SUPER POWERS REQUIRED:

We are just as interested in the comprehensive representation of a diverse humanity as we are in finding exceptional talent when casting our groundbreaking entertainment. So, if you think you don’t fit the breakdown, SHOW UP. You think you’re the wrong size, color, gender…whatever,
YOU’RE NOT. WE WANT YOU. SHOW UP, show us your stuff and LET’S HAVE SOME FUN.

UNTITLED DANCESHOWPARTYTHING:

We are looking to assemble a unique company of nine electric dancers/physical performers with wildly diverse body types, backgrounds, and individual styles. All dancers must be comfortable learning technical and rigorous choreography across a spectrum of styles, improvising, performing in close proximity to and among audience members, and cutting loose on the dance floor. This is not a “dance ensemble” so much as it is a group of principal dancers who bring their own personalities and superpowers to the group (but are just as comfortable popping in and out of unison). It is in the nature of this show to sculpt and adapt to individual strengths and talents, however the following breakdown provides a guideline for particular skills/qualities that are needed for each track.

• All performers should be proficient in English.
• Union/Non-Union.
• All performers should be 21 or older.

PREPARATION;

• Be prepared to learn several dance combinations.
• Wear clothes and shoes that you love dancing in and that allows you to move in a broad range of styles. They don’t have to include a leotard or tights.
• Don’t wear character shoes.
• Performers should be game to perform in 360 degrees and engage and speak to audience members in close proximity.
• Bring four (4) copies of your headshot/resume.
• Be prepared to stay for a performance callback.
