DanceWorks Chicago Welcomes the Public to Observe Auditions

By: Jan. 11, 2012

DanceWorks Chicago welcomes the general public, FREE of CHARGE, to observe a professional dance audition – an intriguing part of the dance world that is usually off-limits to the public. Take advantage of this unique opportunity and join us as we search for exceptional young dancers to join the DWC family. A great chance to try something new to start out the new year, this innovative approach to an audition is compelling for its exposure to the possibilities of the body, the activation of the mind, the vulnerability and power of the spirit.

DATE: Saturday, January 14, 2012  

TIME: 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. (Doors open at 12:30 p.m. Audience members may come and go throughout the afternoon.) 

PLACE: on stage of The Dance Center of Columbia College, 1306 S. Michigan Avenue, Chicago  

WHAT YOU WILL SEE: The audition will be conducted by Artistic Director Julie Nakagawa. Ballet class with eliminations will be followed by DWC repertoire. DWC representatives will be available that afternoon to answer questions about what's happening on stage. We hope you will come away with a deeper understanding and fresh curiosity about dance that will inspire your continued relationship with dance artists and their art.  

A fresh and innovative contributor to the city's cultural landscape, DanceWorks Chicago is committed to the individual artistic growth of dancers and choreographers through a labora-tory of training, collaboration, mentorship, and performance. We are proud to share excel-lence in dance through a diverse repertory featuring who is new and what is next in contem-porary dance as well as showcasing exciting work from established choreographers. With inspiring artists and audiences, DanceWorks Chicago is always moving.
