Contemporary Dance Experience Audition/Workshop

 
DANCE Jaqlin Medlock

Come dance with Emotions Physical Theatre at our Contemporary Dance Experience Audition/Workshop featuring nationally and internationally known teachers, choreographers, and companies. The Contemporary Dance Experience is a three day event where dancers take class with eight different choreographers in a variety of contemporary based styles. Last year many of our workshop attendees got paid performance work through the connections they built with various choreographers. Past faculty have included current and former company members with Pilobolus, Bill T. Jones, Catapult from America's Got Talent, Shen Wei, Abarukas, Roxey Ballet, amd many more. Optional afternoon seminars include how to market yourself as a dancer and how to turn dance into a career. Build your network, audition for several companies at once, and get seen by eight different choreographers. Emotions Physical Theater uses this workshop as an audition for work with the company. Paid contracts start at $200/week. Emotions Physical Theatre tours nationally and internationally.
