Accent Dance NYC is seeking professional ballet/contemporary ballet dancers for its upcoming NY season March 7-8, 2025. Dancers should have very strong ballet technique with the versatility to perform contemporary works as well.

 

We are seeking immediate replacement dancers for Pedro Ruiz’s work Danzón, a reimagining of the traditional Cuban social dance, and Danielle Diniz’s A Place for Us, a newly commissioned work about immigrant narratives. We will also be considering dancers for other works and future projects.
