Seeking Dancer / Magician's Assistant For Upcoming Show
Award-winning magician / illusionist Aaron Balcom is seeking a female dancer for various upcoming events and shows. The ideal applicant (who must be at least 18 years old) should have training and experience in dance, namely jazz, modern or hip hop and should not be afraid of being in tight spaces or appearing in front of large audiences, or in front of a camera. They should have a slim or athletic build and be no taller than 5'6".
Experience in the magic industry is not required and you will be technically trained for all of the illusion equipment. The ability to choreograph your dance segments is a big plus, but you should also be able to follow direction well.
Rehearsals are scheduled to begin within the next several weeks, as there is a show coming up, locally, on August 29, 2009, which is a Michael Jackson tribute concert featuring illusions (http://www.sgiproductions.eventbrite.com/). That show pays $150.00, plus catering by the promoter. There are also other shows which will be coming up shortly thereafter and generally pay more than this first one. For the right person, this could be a great opportunity to not only get on stage (and on television), but to also make money doing something you love!
For more information, please send a resume and any questions you might have. Thanks for reading and we look forward to hearing from you soon!
Congratulations to our 2009 Graduates! Although the rain threatened to make it an adventure, the skies cleared and we had a delightful afternoon with the first commencement combined with the College of Education.
