HOW TO APPLY FOR AN AUDITION

Through an open-call application, 28 pre-selected choreographers will be invited to an in person interview in front of a panel of artists and professionals from the field. The interview will begin by viewing the video of the work submitted virtually. It will also include questions from the panel relating to their background, their work, their creative goals and what they hope to gain from the residency workshops. If you are a choreographer who is part of a team, one of you may apply on behalf of the group. You may not save applications in process. Once applications are submitted they cannot be edited.
