Auditions for Singers

We are looking for singers to be a part of SHORE in NYC. SHORE is made by Emily Johnson, directed by Ain Gordon, music direction by James Everest, composition by James Everest and Nona Marie Invie with Fletcher Barnhill. The singing is subtle sometimes and super full sometimes. It includes humming, long sustained notes, chanting, harmonies, and melodies. Singers perform outdoors and on stage. Some movement experience is necessary as singers also walk and sway during the performance.

SHORE is the third in a trilogy of works that began with the New York Dance and Performance "Bessie" award-winning work, The Thank-you Bar and continued with the 10 city tour of Niicugni. SHORE expands beyond the theater into the world. SHORE is a multi-day performance installation of dance, story, volunteerism, and feasting. It is a celebration of the places where we meet and merge - land and water, performer and audience, art and community, past, present, and future. 

Over the course of a week, SHORE includes four parts: COMMUNITY ACTION (volunteerism) in partnership with community organizations, STORY - a curated reading by local authors, PERFORMANCE that begins outdoors and moves into a theater, and a festive, culminating potluck FEAST to which participants bring the stories and recipes of the dishes they bring to share.
