Whilst selecting our cast we reviewed 450 cv’s, auditioned 150 people and picked 12 dancers.
The artists we chose are from all around the world; Korea, Canada, Portugal, France, England, Italy, Holland, Taiwan and are all from different backgrounds and training.
The cast is very special to us, their diversity is a big part of the project as it gives a sense of the international response to the piece.
