Audition for a Resident Company

Dance Place has several professional dance companies in residence, including Carla & Company, Deborah Riley Dance Projects, and Coyaba Dance Theatre. Dancers are often selected from the class which the choreographer teaches, and sometimes general auditions are held. If you wish to join a resident company, the best way to find out more about auditioning is to take a class to become familiar with the movement and then ask the instructor directly about openings or auditions for a particular company. Dance Place also posts notices about auditions and other opportunities around town and regionally on the Artist Bulletin Board located just inside the office door entrance on the first floor.

In order to be considered, send a letter indicating your interest and availability along with a promotional packet and dvd of your work. Your application should be sent by November 1 in the year prior to the season (fall-summer) in which you wish to be presented (i.e. for consideration in the 2011-2012 Performing Season, send your information by November 1, 2010.)
