Job Description: Immersive Actors & Dancers

Production: The Afterlife Party
Location: St. Louis, MO
Dates: Late October 2025 (with rehearsals prior)

We are casting a diverse ensemble of actors and dancers to bring The AfterLife to life — a high-end, immersive Halloween event where guests don’t just attend, they step inside a living story. Performers will embody characters ranging from vampiric royalty and cryptic oracles to silent dancers and hidden nobles, weaving interactions that create a seamless blend of theatre, nightlife, and narrative immersion.

Responsibilities

• Portray assigned roles with strong character presence, improvisation, and guest engagement.

• Interact one-on-one and in groups, guiding guests through storylines, token exchanges, and symbolic rituals.

• Maintain character throughout the event, balancing theatricality with guest comfort and safety.

• Attend scheduled rehearsals to learn role prompts, story progression, and movement choreography.

• Collaborate with other performers to ensure fluid transitions and cohesive atmosphere.

• (For dancers) Perform choreographed or improvised movement sequences that enhance the immersive environment.

What We’re Looking For

• Actors (21+) – Bold, improvisational performers with strong presence, able to captivate strangers and improvise story-driven dialogue.

• Dancers (21–35) – Skilled in expressive movement, contemporary, ballroom, or theatrical dance; comfortable using body language as primary communication.

• Comfort with interactive, improvisational performance in close proximity to guests.

• Reliability, professionalism, and a willingness to collaborate in a fast-paced live environment.

• Previous experience in theatre, improv, immersive events, or nightlife performance is a plus, but not required.

What We Offer

• Paid roles (event performance + rehearsal stipend).

• Professional photography & media coverage — performers will be featured in press and promotional material.

• A chance to build your résumé with immersive theatre experience in a premium, upscale event.

• Creative freedom to shape your character’s interactions within provided prompts.

• A one-of-a-kind performance opportunity blending theatre, nightlife, and storytelling.

How to Apply

Please submit:

• Headshot + resume (or performance reel/self-tape).

• A short note on your experience with improv, movement, or interactive performance.

• Your availability for rehearsals in October and performance on Halloween weekend.
