Acclaimed as "vivid," "Incendiary," and "Desperate for Attention," Hard/ Femme Dances is a Brooklyn-based DanceTheater company devoted to storytelling, queerness, and the transformative power of glitter. They are currently looking for 1 male-presenting/trans femme dancer for a showing of their latest work, The Boof Quadrille, at APAP on January 13th, 2024.

The Boof Quadrille is a loving spoof, pastiche, and homage to the grand social dances of the Gilded Age. Utilizing the structures of social dances such as the waltz, the quadrille, the tango, the polka, and contemporary dance-making modalities and vocabularies, The Boof Quadrille is a latter-day cotillion where desire, jealousy, and one-upmanship are on full display. The performers weave, bob, and sashay their way around the stages as alliances are forged and shattered, reputations are ruined, and bitter rivalries are reconciled, all in the ultimate quest to become the Belle of the Ball.

Dancers should have at least 2+ years professional experience (no students, please). Please send in headshot, resumé, dance reel and general availability to kelseyrondeau@gmail.com before 12 Noon on Thursday, December 7th.

The audition will be held from 4-6PM on Friday, December 7th in Brooklyn. Callbacks will be held on Sunday, December 10th from 3PM-5PM. 

Before rehearsal, please review footage between 32:30-33:10 on the video link listed below.
