Call for dancers
*Sarah Marie Picard + Dancers at The Joyce Theatre, NYC
SMP Dance Company and Acting for Dancers are seeking passionate, committed, and artistically curious dancers to join us in upcoming projects, residencies, and performances.
At the heart of our work is the belief that dance is more than steps — it is story, presence, and truth in motion. We are looking for dancers who are eager to explore vulnerability, embody storytelling, and collaborate within an ensemble committed to creating work that is raw, poetic, and deeply human.
Opportunities Include:
Performance & Dance Theatre: Original works with SMP Dance Company, blending contemporary dance and theatre.
Dance Film Projects: Cinematic collaborations that bring the intimacy of performance to screen.
Residencies & Labs: Creative spaces where dancers explore new choreographic processes, improvisation, and collaboration with musicians and visual artists.
Workshops & Mentorship: Training opportunities through Acting for Dancers that deepen presence and unlock performance artistry.
Who We’re Looking For
Pre-professional, college, and professional level dancers.
Artists open to risk-taking, storytelling, and collaboration.
Movers with a strong contemporary base and curiosity to explore beyond genre.
How to Get Involved
Attend an Acting for Dancers Workshop: Our Theatre Lab and In-Studio Residencies are one of the best ways to connect with us and be considered for future projects.
Submit Your Interest: Send your headshot, resume, and a short reel (performance or improv).
Stay Connected: Join our mailing list and follow @smpdancecompany and @sarahmarieofficial for upcoming auditions, labs, and creative calls.
✨ This is your invitation to step into a process where artistry meets story, and presence becomes performance.
