ABOUT

The Winter Immersion Project (WIP) is a 4 day choreography-based workshop for dancers to learn, create, and experiment with new movement material through the exploration of composition and choreographic tools that come from a variety of practices. Practices shared/taught at WIP draw from BDT's artistic processes and are facilitated by current Core Members.

BDT's Immersion Projects are designed as rigorous training experiences for motivated dancers, ages 18 and older, within a professional contemporary dance company environment. Participants will study, rehearse, create, and perform with co-artistic director Jessie Jeanne Stinnett and members of the company. All students will take daily class taught by current company members.

Boston Dance Theater will be hosting an Open Call Audition on the morning of the final day of WIP, January 5, 2024 at 10:30AM.
