Casting Call: 2 hand balancers/ gymnasts/ partner acrobats *dance and acting background a plus!!

Title of Work: TBD

Choreographer: Madeline Hoak

Choreographer's Notes: 
I am creating a single act for the inaugural month of Cirkus Moxie performances. It's a collaboration with Cirkus Thinkers Alise Bokaldere and Jason Dupree. They have created a beautiful poem, titled "First Poem", that invokes a 'circus of the mind.' I first heard it performed in Lund, Sweden, and now I'm bringing an evolution of it to NYC. The new piece will honor Alise and Jason's intent of creating a mental circus while bringing it to life with subtle live action and theatrical lighting. Individuals with strong handstand skills and/or partnering experience are encouraged to apply. Please send a note of interest and relevant media to: madelinehoak@gmail.com.
