AUDITIONS FOR CORE PERFORMANCE COMPANY

CORE Performance Company seeks dancers for their 2012-2013 season. Auditions will be held in both of CORE’s home cities. Atlanta auditions will be held at CORE Studios on March 8 from 9-10:30 a.m. and March 10 from 1- 2:30 p.m., and in Houston on March 24 from 9:30-11 a.m. at Barnevelder Movement/Arts Complex, Studio  B. Registration begins a half-hour before the class.

CORE Performance Company, headquartered in Atlanta, GA and Houston, TX is seeking dance artists to join the company for our 2012-13 season. The season will feature the creation of new works for the stage as well as site-specific work with multiple performances in Atlanta, Houston and on tour. The paid (non-union) contract period will include a minimum of 32 weeks at 30 hours per week (including rehearsals and performances).

If you are in Houston or elsewhere, to become a member of CORE, you will need to be prepared to relocate to Atlanta for a substantial period of time during our performing season, which runs from September through May each year.

Interested dance artists should attend the appropriate audition (see above). The audition process will be structured similarly to a CORE Performance Company class. The Artistic Director, Sue Schroeder, is interested in observing the attendees “at work”. After a warm-up, be prepared to learn a lengthy movement phrase and then work creatively with that phrase using specific instructions to generate new movement material.

We are looking for seasoned dance artists, skilled in the Modern/Postmodern idiom who have the ability and interest to contribute creatively with a sense of curiosity, wonder and collaboration.

Please bring a resumé as well as a prepared statement of your personal, professional and artistic goals.

Email info@coredance.org for more information and to register.
