Walk-ins are welcome, but space is limited! 

IMPORTANT: Please try to arrive at least 15 minutes early, so that you have time to complete paperwork and begin your own self-led warm-up.

The Washington Post has described Dr. Adrienne Clancy as a "wizard of invention," and her choreography as "a tour de force of unpredictable partnering." With a heavy focus on contemporary dance & partnering technique, auditions will include ClancyWorks’ repertory material and movement exercises essential to our company’s ongoing & future creative projects, aesthetic, etc. In addition to working with Dr. Clancy, dancers have the opportunity to learn new works by guest choreographers. This year, company members will also work alongside our newly appointed Associate Artistic Director, Mathew Heggem, who spent the last ten years working in the NYC dance community as a performer, choreographer, curator and producer.

The company's outstanding skill lies in its ability to combine physically demanding, powerful movement with the sensitive portrayal of cultural nuances and personal emotions. So, we are looking for artists who understand that dance is about more than just technique! The craft comes in our ability to “shift perceptions through performance” as we express ourselves through movement. And, we present dynamic partnering work that reflects our powerful aesthetic and social vision, to form trust within a framework of diversity & inclusion. Dancers should have a strong background in contemporary/modern dance with an interest in partnering and exploring ideas analytically, as well as physically, the ability to improvise is also important, and a diverse dance background of multiple forms is preferred.
