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.
