Breakdown

In Your Arms is comprised of ten short vignettes about a pair of lovers, told solely through dance, each sequence set in a different time and place


Male 1:
Late 30s- 40s. A guy just past his prime with an optimistic quality. Must be strong dancer and strong actor.

Male 2:
40s-50s, must be incredibly strong ballet dancer and a strong actor.

Male 3:
Late 20s/30s, must be incredibly charismatic. Strong dancer with partnering skills, and also a strong actor. Experience with Tango would be a plus.

Male 4:
Late 20s- early 40s, must be incredibly strong Flamenco dancer and strong actor.
