Audition call-out: New Greenwich based outdoor work

GREENWICH DANCE presents a new outdoor work choreographed by Mathieu Geffré

When: 24th and 25th of April.
Where: London

Award-winning choreographer Mathieu Geffré is looking for 5 outstanding dance artists with a high level of training in contemporary dance for the creation of a new outdoor work commissioned by Greenwich Dance.

The Project
Destined to tour outdoor festivals in Greenwich, the work is conceived as a promenade performance where audiences will encounter a series of love duets inspired by real stories collected during the creative process.

Mathieu’s choreographic style requires performers to demonstrate a high level of physicality as well as a collaborative, playful and sensitive awareness throughout the creative and touring process. Performers must be comfortable with partnering work and happy to work in urban settings.

Mathieu’s choreography carries essential values of inclusivity, therefore we actively encourage applications from artists who self-identify as black, Asian, ethnically diverse, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, non binary, neurodiverse or disabled.

Please know we will be following current Government Covid-19 guidelines throughout the process.
