DANCERS WANTED FOR "PART II" OF

"LA EPOCA - THE LOST RHYTHMS IN SALSA"

Dancers of Mambo and Salsa are now being sought for the filming of "La Epoca - The Lost Rhythms in Salsa," a docu-film being produced by the same family-producers of the internationally-attended film: "La Epoca - The Palladium Era."

Dancers of all levels of experience familiar with Mambo, Salsa, Cha-Cha-Cha, Caleno, Tango and Waltz must contact Project Manager Lynne Merrill at lynne.merrill@LaEpocaFilm.com to be considered as principal roles and as cast members. Please, note that ballroom dancers must be experienced (Tango, Waltz), but all other dancers are welcome on all levels of experience.

Producers are currently looking for new dancers, intermediate dancers AND top-notch experienced dancers from ALL OVER the globe. Auditions are being held in New York, NY; Washington DC; Miami, FL and several other major US cities. The purpose in featuring these particular dances are to demonstrate some of the styles of dance and rhythms that compliment AND contrast what falls under the umbrella term: "salsa."

Below, are the roles now being cast and must be filled:

Seasoned Dancers: We are casting SEASONED dancers (highly experienced dancers) who have the capacity to demonstrate real-time amendments to their routines and choreography by emulating in-person instruction by producers in order to capture that which is most fitting for the film. What is most important is that these seasoned dancers already have advanced footwork, foot-shines and several advanced turn-patterns that feature circular motion as opposed to line-motion. "Seasoned dancers" does NOT carry a "years of experience" requirement - it simply signifies the CAPACITY to demonstrate knowledge and talent!

Intermediate Dancers: We are casting intermediate dancers (comfortable dancers) who are able to demonstrate their comfort on the dance floor with their own unique dancing skills. We are seeking these intermediate dancers who have EITHER formal class training OR cultural experience or BOTH. This role will fill in the spaces needed in a public filming setting.

New Dancers: We are casting new dancers; dancers who simply have a passion for dancing what they already know and are comfortable with it. This role will play a small but important part in supporting the "space element" on the dance floor, which means, producers find great value in working through filling the space on the dancer floor. This role, while small but important, allows dancers who aren't advanced in their skills to STILL contribute to history!

ALL DANCERS: If you are a dancer who would like to be featured in the production of "La Epoca - The Lost Rhythms in Salsa," and would like producers to travel to your city to feature you and other dancers in your area - please contact us by emailing Project Manager Lynne Anne Merrill at Lynne.Merrill@LaEpocaFilm.com and she can work with you on getting producers to your area to film.

California Residents: YOU spoke - WE listened and WE would like to act on your petitions. Several hundred California residents have emailed producers of "La Epoca - The Palladium Era" making their petitions heard that they want a part to play in the "La Epoca" productions. We're looking forward to working with you this time around. Please, let's put our thoughts together and see how we can come up with a plan that reaches the multitudes.
