Katie Faulkner is seeking 15-20 dancers for a site-specific piece along the Market Street corridor in the fall of 2011. Performers should possess a high level of modern/contemporary technique as well as a comfort with partnering, theatricality, improvisation, movement generation, and the use of the voice in performance. Performers should also be comfortable generating movement material and working within a highly collaborative creative process.

The work will be rehearsed both on site and in studio settings in San Francisco for an intensive period between August and September. Rehearsals will likely be two days/week in August building to three days/week in September. Please only audition if you are available for the following rehearsal and performance times.

Rehearsal and Performance Schedule
August: Tuesdays 3-6:00 & Thursdays 3:30-6:30
September: Tuesdays 3-6:00, Thursdays 3:30-6:30, and Sunday 7-9:00
Performance Dates: Sept. 29, 30 and October 1, 2, 7, 8, & 9

Performances will be paid but not rehearsals.
