December 16-17, 2019 in Cleveland, OH. 

Auditions for: Trainee, Protege, Apprentice, & Company B Member positions 

Inlet Dance Theatre will be holding auditions for our upcoming 2020-2021 season. We are looking for professionals and students who are teachable, willing, and able to assimilate into our organizational culture and aesthetic. Inlet, internationally recognized for "...using dance to further people", is a contemporary dance company with roots in American Modern Dance with a technical base grounded in Hawkins-based release technique, Pilobolus-based nontraditional partnering, and a collaborative creative process that relies on improvisation skills. Inlet is equally strong in education programming as it is in performing concert and special event work. The company seeks highly skilled dance artists with a desire to educate as well as perform. 

We employ a "get to know you" approach to auditions. We are looking to determine fit within Inlet's culture and aesthetic, as well as create an opportunity for you to see if Inlet's programming and culture is a good fit for you. The audition is formatted like a workshop, so there is no need to prepare a solo. You will be provided with links to repertory to learn prior to arrival and the Company Members will lead you through the various components of the audition.
