Open Audition for Male Dancers to Work with Lloyd Newson in A Re-staging of DV8’s ‘Enter Achilles’

Open audition for male dancers for Lloyd Newson project

SEEKING MALE DANCERS TO WORK WITH WORLD RENOWNED CHOREOGRAPHER LLOYD NEWSON
Lloyd Newson has pushed the boundaries of what dance can be, and say, for more than 30 years. His working methods focus on the connection between meaning and movement.
Newson is currently seeking exceptional male dancers to recreate Enter Achilles. Rehearsals commence November 2019 and the production tours internationally from 2020. The project will be co-produced by DV8 Physical Theatre, Rambert and Sadler’s Wells Theatre.
We are looking for a broad range of applicants, with different ages and looks. Applicants should be fluent in English, have acting skills and the ability to deliver text convincingly. It is an advantage if you can do a British accent. You should have strong contemporary dance technique, and be more interested in understanding the intricacies of body language than reproducing abstract dance phrases.
We are also looking for performers with experience in aerial rope/corde lisse. If this is you, please include a link to video of you demonstrating these skills as part of your audition registration.
Applicants must be available for a two-week workshop period (paid) in July 2018.

Audition: Tuesday 29 May 2018. Recalls will be held on Wednesday 30 May (10am – 6pm).

Where: Rambert, 99 Upper Ground, London. SE1 9PP.

How to Apply: This is an open audition but you are required to register in advance – use this link to register via our booking service (Brown Paper Tickets).
Places are limited and allocated on a first come, first served basis.
You will need to bring a hard copy of your CV, including headshot, on the day.
International applicants are encouraged to apply although we are unable to cover travel or accommodation costs associated with attending the audition.
