Job Description
'Everywhere's a Beach' is a brand new outdoor show.
Taking place on a large bespoke parasol structure, this will be a family friendly show touring to outdoor festivals and towns throughout the summer.
We are looking for a physical performer, experienced in aerial circus & devising. The performer will join the team to make a cast of 3. You'll need to be confident in character work (or happy enough to give it a good go!) and playing on a large, unusual structure (which involves a lot of hanging off metal bars!).
When on the road, a usual performance day will involve setting up the rig, doing 2 shows, and derigging before travelling home/ onto the next location. It can sometimes be hard work, but we love it and if you're up for getting stuck in and being part of a lovely team, we'd love to hear from you!
You must be available for our three rehearsal weeks taking place in June:
101 Outdoor Arts, Newbury 5th-10th & 19th-24th June (accommodation & food provided)
The Horton, Epsom 26-30th June (no accom/ food provided)
We then have performance dates spread across weekends from July-September. Dates are constantly in development, as bookings come in, so please get in touch if you have any concerns about potential date clashes in that period.
Audition Date: Tuesday 16th May, at The Horton, Epsom (KT19 8NP)
If selected to audition, you'll join us for some exercises, games and will have a chance to play on the giant parasol structure. We won't ask to see any set acts/ routines, as the audition will be more of a workshop style.
To see the structure (as used in an R&D for a different show), please see:
