Vacancy for Dancers

Springs Dance Company is looking for performers.

We are currently looking for a dancer for Summer and Autumn 2022 for a rehearsal period and national tour, but please apply if you are interested in working with the company beyond this period as there are other projects on the horizon.   

A TIME TO MOURN, A TIME TO DANCE is a double-bill choreographed by Lizzi Kew Ross and Heather Richmond that laments and commemorates loss and celebrates life.
