Follow Through Collective are Looking for a Dancer to Join their London-Based Tour

Follow Through Collective, led by Greta Gauhe, is seeking a talented female or non-binary performer/dancer to join the existing cast of ‘1 Click Away’, as we recently have received funding from Arts Council England to tour the work in London and beyond.

We are looking for london-based candidates who have experience working in both traditional theater settings and art institutions, as well as schools. “1 Click Away” is a participatory performance designed for families and children, so we value individuals who exude confidence and joy when working with young audiences. Additionally, the performance involves creative use of cardboard boxes, so prior experience working with objects during a performance is a plus.
