DeNada Dance Theatre (Choreographer Carlos Pons Guerra) seeks three professional dancers for the creation of its new full-length production: a queer dance adaptation of Christopher Marlowe’s play, Edward II.

Deadline for applications: April 13, 12 pm (GMT)

DeNada Dance Theatre (Choreographer Carlos Pons Guerra) seeks three professional dancers for the creation of its new full-length production: a queer dance adaptation of Christopher Marlowe’s play, Edward II.

The Project
Edward II narrates the true story of the medieval King of England who fell in love with his male court favourite. We are reimagining Marlowe’s 1592 play as a queer high school fever dream: a gay king, the boy he loves, and the war that tears the playground apart.

What We Are Looking For
We are looking for three professional dancers of all gender identities with:

· Excellent contemporary and good classical techniques.

· At least one year of professional experience.

· Strong stage presence and experience in physical character work.

· Articulate personality, physical theatricality, and a willingness to play and engage intellectually.

· We welcome other performance skills such as drag, circus, voguing, heels, and more.

· Experience in historical dances— baroque, character, regency, folk, ballroom, etc, a plus, but not necessary.

As the production aims to represent LGBTQ+ experience in secondary school (in the past and now), the process will involve engaging with young people (ages 12-16) as part of the creative research. Experience working with young people is ideal, but an openness to this context is essential.

Rehearsals (Leeds, UK):
