About us:
De Dansers are known for their dance concerts: organic encounters of modern dance and live music. We work with intuitive and theatrical movement qualities, acrobatic partner work and physical sensitivity.
We are looking for performers with:
– strong stamina and physical awareness
– openness to creativity and collaboration
– experience in partnering and using voice/singing is a plus
– motivation to work as part of a team
Dancers coming from all performance backgrounds/styles/trainings (modern dance, circus, mime, hip hop, self-taught, etc.) are warmly encouraged to apply. We value diverse experiences and perspectives.
About Howling Road:
“In a world increasingly shaped by questionable interests, where people live divided and dependent on on-demand goods and services, Howling Road takes steps in the opposite direction. We want to make tangible the richness of the body itself (including the voice), and the power and connection you can discover, when you dedicate yourself to it with time and effort. Howling Road is our way of hoping: a sensitive celebration-protest.”
— Josephine van Rheenen & Guy Corneille
The piece will be performed in varied settings: evening performances in theaters, but also on location, on
music festivals and for youngsters.
