AUDITIONS
Legs on the Wall, seeks performers for a high-profile international gig from June to August 2008 (dates tbc).
We are looking for professional performers with exceptional skills in dance, acrobalance and/or acrobatics. Aerial and choreographic skills would be an advantage although are not essential. We are specifically seeking performers who are comfortable in both dance and acrobatics.

Auditions will be held on Tuesday 29th and Wednesday 30th January at Sydney Dance Company studios. You will be required to perform a 2 minute prepared piece which displays your skills. The audition will include individual and group improvisational exercises. We anticipate running morning and afternoon audition sessions lasting approximately 2 – 3 hours.

Brand-new Tarquette Dance Floor
Thanks to the tireless efforts of Queen Street Studio co-founder – Sam Chester – and the success of the spaceAID auction/fundraiser, all our members will now be working on the brand-new tarquette dance floor which was installed on Saturday the 8th of July, 2007.
Much appreciation goes to the owners of Standex and also Ashley, for their efforts in helping to lift the 500kgs of flooring up to the 2nd floor.
ENJOY, EVERYONE!
