Axons Dance Theatre is hiring! We are looking for mature artists strong in pointe and comfortable with contemporary. Rehearsals are on Wednesday evenings. Currently, rehearsals are unpaid, a small performance stipend is provided on shows casted. We are working hard on acquiring grants for better pay in the future.

 

Class and audition will be held on Thursday September 22nd at New York Live Arts. Class will be a regular ballet class taught by Artistic Director Joan Liu. Audition will be co-conducted with company members. Please note there will be NO warm up in the audition portion, please come prepared to learn rep in pointe shoes. There will be non-pointe (your choice of socks, flat ballet shoes, or bare feet) and floorwork portion in the audition, bring kneepads if you prefer. While class is encouraged to give you better understanding of what we are looking for, you do not have to take class to be considered for the company. You are also welcome to take class and not audition.

 

Schedule of the day:

6:15-7:45pm ballet class

8:00-9:45pm audition

 

Class is $15 if pre-registered, $20 cash only at the door. Audition portion is free.

 

Pre-registration is highly encouraged. In the event that we reach venue capacity, priority will be given to those pre-registered.

One arm is raised above the head and the other extended to the back parallel to the extended leg. The school director is opposite the dancer and wears a red DTH logo t-shirt and black pants and ballet slippers. She holds the hand of the arm raised above the dancer’s head with one arm and her back arm is extended and she is smiling at the student.
