Come prepared. The DWB Audition Checklist!
Choreographer Auditions
All interested choreographers should:
Download the Choreographer Information Packet
Fill out the Choreographer Audition Form on page 3 & turn it in at the time of your audition
Email director@danceworksboston.com to sign-up for a 10 minute audition time (if available, sign up yourself using the scheduling button on the Choreographer Audition Page)
Bring $10.00 Audition Fee (cash, or pay online in advance. Checks are no longer accepted)
Bring your audition music (iPod - please remove case & turn on airplane mode). If needed, bring your own dongle for AV connection.
Wear dance clothes you can move in. Some choreographers like to dress the part or bring accessories or props that help bring their vision to life.
Prepare at least 6-10 eight counts of choreography to your song of choice.
Arrive at least 15 minutes before your scheduled audition time. Points may be deducted if you are late.
Stretch on your own & remain in the waiting area directly outside of the studio.
When it is your audition time the Director will come out to greet you. Don’t forget to smile & HAVE FUN!
Dancer Auditions
All interested dancers should:
Complete our online Dancer Registration Form
Pay your $50 Registration Fee online. Dancers can also turn this in at Dancer Auditions (cash only).
Masks optional
Bring a pen; water; snacks. It's a long day and dancers need to stay hydrated & keep up energy levels. There will be down time in-between auditions to get food as long as you're not auditioning for every piece.
Subscribe to our listserve (top right corner!). Stay up to date on all upcoming events!
Wear dance clothes you can move in & that make you feel confident! Bring proper footwear for different dance styles (ie: hip-hop sneakers, dance paws, tap shoes, etc).
Arrive on time. If you’re not auditioning for every style, be at least 20 minutes early to the next audition time to make sure you don’t miss it!
Stretch on your own & throughout the day to avoid injury.
Know how to take an audition. Don't be scared to mess up! Own it & move on. Switch lines when asked to switch and don't be afraid to stand out & get noticed.
Smile & HAVE FUN!
