You will dance in bare feet for your contemporary dance and creative session. For example, tights, leggings, or dance trousers with a leotard or fitted top.

Please wear dance clothes that you can easily move in.

We understand that you may feel nervous about dancing in front of an audition panel and will do our best to put you at ease so that you can perform to the best of your ability. We are looking for your potential for contemporary dance study (technique and creative practice) and how you work with others on practical tasks. The practical audition is designed to mirror a first-year experience so you will also take part in a tutor-led contemporary technique class and a creative task exploration. You will dance alongside fellow applicants in a 90-minute high-energy contemporary dance class, designed to assess your potential to respond both technically and expressively.

Dance Performance students might take this as an alternative to the Dance Production performer option. You will work alongside the company in preparing for the tour in semester 1 and be fully involved in the touring schedule in the first half of semester 2. Students undertaking the 45-credit option will have selected to work with 3Fall Dance Company or mapdance in an intensive technical theatre practice or administration role. In Semester two you will focus on your placement with weekly tutorials. In Semester One you will initiate your placement, while weekly taught seminars will enable you to develop key skills that will assist you in your placement and learn about important topics such as health & safety, welfare procedures, budgeting, marketing and industry best practice. Possible placement venues could include regional dance agencies, small scale dance companies, community dance venues, educational institutions or dance magazines. During this placement you will be required to apply your own decision-making skills and exercise your own initiative, reflect on and evaluate personal strengths and weaknesses. This may be within dance administration, technical production or work in the community dance sector. This module acts as a bridge to the professional world, as you undertake a work placement in a dance related role.
