NORWEGIAN AURA — CASTING

LOS ANGELES & LAS VEGAS | SEPTEMBER 19–22, 2026

Norwegian Cruise Line is seeking Production Dancers, Singers, Specialty Vocalists, and Aerialists/Gymnasts for original mainstage productions debuting aboard the newest vessel, the Norwegian AURA.

One production will be a concert/Las Vegas residency-style experience centered around the musical legacy of a well-known artist. This brand-new “Concert Show” will follow in the footsteps of Revolution: A Celebration of Prince aboard the Norwegian AQUA and Elton: A Celebration of Elton John aboard the Norwegian LUNA.

In addition to mainstage performances, cast members may participate in and/or cover various entertainment offerings, including the Welcome Aboard Show, nightclub events, parties, and other onboard experiences.
