Burlesque Show Auditions
 
What: Vivid Motion will be holding auditions for it's annual holiday burlesque show
 
Date: Saturday, September 13th
 
Time: 10:00 am to 12:00 pm
 
Where: Acorn Productions
at the Dana Warp Mill, 90 Bridge St., Westbrook ME

Auditions will be conducted in class style format; which means a warm-up will be led, then each choreographer will teach a combination.  No formal preparation or "audition piece" is needed.
 
Please wear clothes you can move in - dressing up in 'burlesque' style is not necessary nor recommended. Dance shoes if you have them, or bare feet are fine.

Many styles of dance will be included in this show, and dancers of all skill levels are welcome to audition. We are looking for people with at least some dance and/or acting experience. You do not need to be a pro: a good attitude and willingness to try count for a lot!
 
During the show we do ask performers to wear revealing clothing and occasionally take some of it off - not stripping, but tease down to bras, panties, bright red jockey shorts...

Vivid Motion, Inc is a non-profit entity and our productions are all-volunteer. In addition to rehearsals and shows, you will be asked to help out in other ways, like hanging up posters, stitching costumes, etc. It's work, but it's fun, see?

Rehearsals will be held on Saturdays and Sundays from 9:30 am - 2:00 pm. That does not necessarily mean you will have 9 hours of rehearsal every weekend; it simply means that is the time frame during which rehearsals will be scheduled.
 
Performances will be December 18-21 at the St. Lawrence Arts Center in Portland.

Vivid Motion Inc. is a 501-c-(3) non-profit organization and was started by local dancers in Portland Maine who wanted to perform and share their love of dance with the community. Too often dance performance is seen as artsy or boring, filled with deep meanings and a secret language.

Vivid Motion Inc. believes that dance can be entertaining to watch as well as to do. Our performances are filled with dances meant to entertain. And if a little meaning seeps through that's ok.

Why should you come see one of our shows? As one of our founders is fond of saying "you can pay only a little more than it costs to see a movie, and see a real live person from your very own town."
