Uniting Pride is starting a dance team to perform in the Pride Parade (and maybe some other stuff, too!) - wanna come dance it UP with us? Then come on out to our open call auditions on either Wed Aug 17th 6-8pm or Sat Aug 20th 1-3pm!
This program is totally free and open to all ages. We’re looking for strong movers and dancers who have experience learning choreography and have the strength and stamina to march and dance for around 45mins to an hour in the CU Pride Parade on Sat, Oct 1st. Rehearsals will start at the end of August and we’ll rehearse twice a week leading up to the parade.
Audition Details:
Location - The Station Theatre, 223 Broadway Ave, Urbana, IL 61801
Session 1 - Wed Aug 17th, 6-8pm
Session 2 - Sat Aug 20th, 1-3pm
You only need to attend 1 session. Dress in comfortable clothes and shoes that allow you to dance freely and safely. You will be taught a short routine and then be given a few chances to show that routine off. While the ability to dance and move in rhythm to music is important, even more important is a good attitude and a positive spirit of PRIDE! This dance team will be about fun, community, getting some exercise, and then living in the beautiful moment that is the CU Pride Parade.
Dance It UP will be managed, directed, and choreographed by Adrian Rochelle (they/them) and Nicole Frydman (she/they).
