THE WIZARD OF OZ - Equity video submissions (chorus dancers)
American Conservatory Theater | San Francisco, CA
LORT Non-Rep
$1207 weekly minimum (LORT A)
Equity actors for chorus dancer parts in THE WIZARD OF OZ (see breakdown). All roles will be understudied.
Three actors to embody, puppet and/or voice various roles including CITIZENS OF MUNCHKINLAND, CROWS, TREES, POPPIES, SNOWMEN, OZIANS, WINKIES, MONKEYS and JITTERBUGS:
Track 1: A confident, versatile, (and perhaps more than a bit unhinged) dancer/mover/physical performer. Fearless in their body and not afraid to tear shit up.
Track 2: A confident improviser/host, comfortable riffing within the context of a welcome speech and/or handling special guests. An innovator under pressure. Drag/variety performers and hosts encouraged to submit.
Track 3: Fierce and versatile. A strong singer, to play, among other things, the HEAD MONKEY. Puppetry experience a big plus.
Please slate (say your name and the title of your piece) at the top of your video. Please prepare the dance combination at
