FAQs auditions

Read the frequently asked questions about auditions for a new co-production by Dutch National Ballet and ISH Dance Collective here.

  • The audition takes place on a single day and consists of several parts. You will participate in a group assignment with a combination of set material and a short composition assignment. In addition, you will prepare a solo of up to 2 minutes of your own choice of music. Choose a track that enhances your style and allows you to excel in your full range of movement and individuality.
    During the audition day, an initial selection may be made after the group assignment before the solos take place.

  • Your music can be plugged in via phone/laptop. It is wise to download the required music in advance so you are not dependent on any internet connection. We also ask that you send the music in advance to audities@ishdancecollective.com.

  • No. ISH Dance Collective does not facilitate accommodation, flights, or visa procedures.
    Participation is only possible if you are already based in the Netherlands or are fully responsible for your own accommodation and residence permit during the rehearsal and performance period.

  • ISH Dance Collective rewards performers according to the CAO Theatre and Dance.

  • If you are not available on the dates indicated but would like to audition, please contact audities@ishdancecollective.com. We will see if there is another option for auditioning.

  • If you are not available on one of the rehearsal days (see below), please contact audities@ishdancecollective.com, for consultation.
    If you are not available on one of the tour days, you do not have to audition. We unfortunately do not have understudies for the performance.

  • Our focus is strictly on hip-hop styles (hip-hop, breaking, popping, locking, clubbing, etc.). If your primary training does not fall within these styles, we ask that you refrain from participating.
