Springs Dance Company is looking for 1 male dancer and 1 female dancer with outstanding ability in contemporary dance, sound professional training and substantial performance experience for a project in 2010. Initially contracts will be offered for the project only, but subsequently a contract for a core company member may be offered.
Five a Day is a high energy 55 minute show designed to inspire and challenge young people about positive choices. The dancer will need to be an exceptional performer with strong contemporary technique and physical theatre skills as well as having the aptitude to teach workshops to a range of abilities. Rehearsals for Five a Day begin in April and the work will tour from May until September or October 2010 with some rest periods (likely to include July and August).

Journey of the Magi is a 90 minute dance theatre work for adults and all the family at Christmas time. This role requires strong character work and requires expressing and communicating contemporary Christian beliefs and values and therefore an ability to do this will be an advantage. Excerpts can be found on the company’s website along with further information:

Rehearsals will begin in October and the work will tour from 25 November til 24 December 2010.
Rehearsals for both projects will take place in the London area. Rehearsals and touring will be part-time and rates of pay will be similar to Equity / ITC rates on a pro-rata basis.
Interested dancers should email a CV, photo and covering letter explaining why they would like to work with Springs on one or both of these projects, no later than 10th March to jobs@springsdancecompany.org.uk.
