CASTING CALL: DANCERS FOR HOUDINI 100
Sparkle Theatricals | Columbia Heights, MN
Compensation: $750 Flat Stipend
PROJECT OVERVIEW
Sparkle Theatricals is seeking dancers for HOUDINI 100, an interactive, immersive production at the Heights Theater celebrating the 100th anniversary of Harry Houdini’s passing. Choreographed by Alejandra Iannone, this original dance section draws inspiration from movement pioneers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries (e.g., Loïe Fuller, Anna Pavlova, Josephine Baker, Isadora Duncan, Bill “Bojangles” Robinson, and Alexander Genée). Written and Directed by Joshua English Scrimshaw; produced by Rick Ausland and Alejandra Iannone. HOUDINI 100 is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
