Dancing Classrooms Northeast Ohio Accepting credentials for 2022 - 2023 Teaching Artists The Dancing Classrooms program is a ten-week, twenty-session social development program that uses ballroom dancing as its "tool" for getting children to break down social barriers, learn about respect, treat others carefully, improve self-confidence, communicate, cooperate, and accept others even if they are different. Dancing Classrooms is not about teaching ballroom dancing. Our mission is to build social awareness, confidence, and self-esteem in children through the practice of social dance.

You will be fingerprinted with the state of Ohio upon employment. Teaching Artists are paid on an hourly basis as seasonal, part-time employees. Employment is during the school year, on school days, between the hours of 7:30 am - 4:00pm. Teaching Artists are seasonal part-time employees that are paid on an hourly basis ($30/hour). Requirements: Make a solid commitment to a sequential ten-week residency two days per week in person at a school(s) during the hours of 7:30am and 4:00pm. Applicants must be available to attend training. Training dates will be July 25 - 29, 2022 (Monday - Friday) from 8:00am - 3:00pm and August 12, 2022 (Time TBD based on candidates availability).

Hudson Players Auditions for Savannah Sipping Society

08 Sep '23

Savannah Sipping Society by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, & Jamie Wooten Performances: November 3,4, 10,11,12*, 17,18 @8pm*special Sunday 2pm matinee Auditions: September 10 & 11 @7pm*we will be requiring proof of vaccination prior to auditions Director: Bob Maddox 4F In this delightful, laugh-a-minute comedy, four unique Southern women, all needing to escape the sameness of their day-to-day routines, are drawn together by Fate—and an impromptu happy hour—and decide it’s high time to reclaim the enthusiasm for life they’ve lost through the years. Over the course of six months, filled with laughter, hilarious misadventures, and the occasional liquid refreshment, these middle-aged women successfully bond and find the confidence to jumpstart their new lives. Together, they discover lasting friendships and a renewed determination to live in the moment—and most importantly, realize it’s never too late to make new old friends. So raise your glass to these strong Southern women and their fierce embrace of life and say “Cheers!” to this joyful and surprisingly touching Jones, Hope, Wooten comedy! Characters: Randa - a perfectionist and workaholic, is struggling to cope with a surprise career derailment that, unfortunately, reveals that she has no life and no idea how to get one. Dot - still reeling from her husband’s recent demise and the loss of their plans for an idyllic retirement, faces the unsettling prospect of starting a new life from scratch—and all alone. Marlafaye - Earthy and boisterous, a good ol’ Texas gal, has blasted into Savannah in the wake of losing her tom-cattin’ husband to a twenty-three-year-old dental hygienist. The strength of her desire to establish a new life is equaled only by her desire to wreak a righteous revenge on her ex. Jinx - Also new to town, a spunky ball of fire, offers her services as a much-needed life coach for these women. However, blinded by her determination and efforts to get their lives on track, she over-looks the fact that she’s the one most in need of sage advice. Hudson Players is a volunteer community theater. We do not precast. All roles are available.
