Flatfoot Dance Company is looking for a
female dancer to start from January 1, 2013.
Flatfoot Dance Company is an award-winning
African Contemporary dance company based in Durban. The company works from a
home base given by the University of KwaZulu-Natal (Howard College Campus). The
company is looking for a female dancer over 20 years of age who would be
interested in joining the company on a full-time professional contract (35
hours a week).
The company have a full annual programme
that includes performance seasons both in and out of South Africa, dance
education and development programmes, and schools/university dance education
work. They work in a contemporary idiom based on Hawkins, Graham and Release
Technique but also do a weekly ballet and pilates/yoga class. All Flatfoot
dancers form part of the administration of the company and its programmes and,
as such, new company members will need to be able to write reports (guidance is
always offered!) and to assist with negotiated administrative tasks.
Dancers must have a minimum of two years
full or part-time contemporary dance training and/or professional dance work,
proven dance/arts education experience (formal and non-formal educational/arts
environments will be considered). They must be over the age of 20 years, have
writing and administration skills (English and/or isiZulu), a valid South
African passport and be computer literate. A valid South African driver’s
licence would be an added benefit.
Anyone interested in auditioning, who can
meet the above minimum requirements, and feel that they have the dedication to
hard work that Flatfoot demands from its dancers/dance educators, should call
the company manager Clare Craighead on 082 875 6065 or e-mail flatfootdancecompany@gmail.com
Auditions will take place on December 8 at
10h00 to 13h00 at the Dance Studio 2 (UKZN – Durban campus). Booking is
essential as no-one will be auditioned with a booking.
