Upcoming Audition for our Newest work Racine D'or!!!!

 
Audition for Movement Workshop Group's Newest Work!

This is a collaborative work inspired by Louisiana folk tales - a modern day Southern mythology using contemporary dance and movement theater. Choreographed by Leslie Guyton and Stephanie Jingle. Music composed by Grammy-nominated Cedric Watson et Bijou Creole as well as Colin Summers. Rehearsals begin immediately for a showing in January, a second showing in March, and the premiere in June. The production will then tour in the fall and spring of 2013/2014.

CASTING
KALINDA - African-American female dancer/actor
LOUIS - African-American male dancer/actor
Both roles require dancers with strong technique, ability to improvise in rehearsals and contribute actively to a collaboration, and a background in acting. Like a silent movie, these roles will not require speaking but will require clear storytelling told through the body and face. Additionally, because of the collaborative process and length of rehearsal/development, we are looking for people who are easy to work with.
