Open Call for Dancers, Movers, Actors, Singers.

Devising an original Dance-Movement Theatre Piece with NYC Director and Choreographer Allison Talis.

Looking for performers who can move, dancers and actors to be a part of an exciting and powerful process to create a long-awaited piece of Dance Theatre. The piece, co-created with the astounding dancer and singer, Lexy Lattimore- is exploring the healing of ancestral trauma through embodied ritual, collective memory and how the ancient meets us in the here and now. Grounded in Allison’s trauma-informed methodology, Emotion in Motion™, the work asks: What do we carry that no longer belongs to us? How do we break patterns that keep us hiding, running, lashing out or repeating? What happens when we remember we belong to each other—and to the Earth? What is the true remembrance that might heal and liberate us all? (to name a few)

Join this free open call workshop to experience Emotion in Motion, a process created by Allison rooted in ensemble improvisational movement with strong guidance and instruction.

At the confluence of decades immersed in study, training, professional and personal experience, Allison developed Emotion-in-Motion as a process for creating her work. With over 26 years as a theatre director, collaborative choreographer, integrative somatic practitioner and Historical trauma specialist, Allison is calling those who want to be a part of this process. Paid performance opportunities will come when grants or funding has been awarded. This is an exciting opportunity to be a part of a special and high-level, new Dance Theatre Company in Boston
