Breakdown

HELL'S KITCHEN (Tour)

SYNOPSIS: In the mid 90’s, in an apartment high above the energy and grit of Manhattan’s Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood, 17-year-old Ali looks toward the horizon until she can just see the Hudson River. Despite the warnings of her over-protective mother, the symphony of the street calls to her—promising freedom, excitement, and the possibility of love. When an inspiring piano teacher facing her own mortality recognizes Ali’s musical talent, she helps Ali to find her voice and how she can make the city her own.

SEEKING:

DANCE ENSEMBLE: All genders and ethnicities. A group of EXCEPTIONAL, highly skilled, athletic dancers who can learn quickly, and possess unique looks and energies that feel authentic to NYC in the 1990's. Must be able to tell a story through movement, possess a high degree of personal artistry, and bring their own individuality, personality, and point of view to the choreography. Styles of dance we are seeking: HIP HOP, RHYTHMIC, AND CONTEMPORARY DANCE. A strong knowledge of and ability to move between all dance styles, as well as a strong sense of rhythmic ability are essential. These roles may also understudy ensemble roles that require singing.

OFFSTAGE MALE & FEMALE ENSEMBLE SWINGS: BIPOC Men & Women, 20s-30s. To cover from 4 – 8 ensemble dancers, and potentially other ensemble roles that require singing.
