Is It a Performance or an Audition?… Ulsan City Dance Company, Choreographer Invitation Performance

March 31 Yeomido Ssi Choreography and Script 'Jou'

Performance for Selecting the Vacant 'Artistic Director and Choreographer' Position

An unusual ‘audition performance’ will be held in Ulsan. The Ulsan City Dance Company’s special guest choreographer invitation performance, ‘Jo-u (遭遇)’, will take place at 7:30 PM on the 31st at the Ulsan Culture and Arts Center Grand Theater.

This special project performance is being held in a festival format over three sessions (March, June, November) since February by the Ulsan City Arts Troupe to select the ‘Artistic Director and Choreographer’ for the currently vacant position in the Ulsan City Dance Company.

Currently, three choreographers active in Korea are invited one per session to showcase their skills in collaboration with the Ulsan City Dance Company.

The performance content will be used as material for selecting the ‘Artistic Director and Choreographer’ who will lead the City Dance Company, based on feedback from citizens, local artists in Ulsan, and dance company members.

The first performance, ‘Jo-u’, features choreographer Yeo Mido, who served as director of the Jeonbuk Provincial Gugak Institute, was a member of the National Dance Company, and held positions as a trainer and operations committee member.

Choreographer Yeo Mido presents Part 1, ‘Strolling, Fading, Soaring’, which expresses the lives of common people through elegant and neat traditional dance, and Part 2, ‘Dalggot (Moon flower)’.

Ms. Yeo said, “It is difficult to convey artistic ideas and colors within a fixed period of one month, but I want the audience to be immersed in the world of dance, excitement, and aesthetic pleasure on this stage.”
