Ray Young - Callout for Black queer/trans dancers

We are seeking two Black queer, trans+ or gender non-conforming dance performers of Caribbean heritage for a restaging of Ray Young’s award-winning work OUT for a UK tour in spring 2024. Defiantly challenging homophobia and transphobia, OUT is a duet – a conversation between two bodies, carving out a new kind of space, reclaiming Dancehall and celebrating Vogue culture amongst the bittersweet scent of oranges.

We are looking for:

Queer and trans+ or gender non-conforming Black performers of Caribbean heritage

We are aware of the different dance scenes and backgrounds people develop their skills within. We welcome performers whose experience and ability has been developed through non-traditional training, as much as those who are professionally trained dancers

Being from a Dancehall and/or Vogueing tradition is a plus, and strong improvisation skills and performance experience are essential
