Performers of all ethnic and racial backgrounds are encouraged to apply. The choreography is extremely rhythmic, energetic and requires physical stamina.

A dance background in any of the following styles is helpful: modern, contemporary, jazz, hip-hop, African, musical theater. Artists should be very comfortable with their bodies; men appear shirtless at times and some women appear with bare midriffs. Featured roles such ad HEROD, SIMON and PETER will come out of the ensemble. Members of the Ensemble may also cover select principal roles.
PREPARATION
Please be warmed up and prepared to dance. Bring flat shoes or sneakers.
