UNTITLED
We’re delighted to be working with Kenny Ortega and Paul Becker on this new Musical TV Special. At this time we’re unable to release details on the project name, so will call the project, ‘UNTITLED’.
‘UNTITLED’ is a journey of discovering friendships and overcoming fears!
Daisy has just moved into a new house and is struggling to make friends at her new school. She journeys on an adventure to find herself with new friends.
Story by, Creative Director & EP: Kenny Ortega
Director/Choreographer: Paul Becker
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
1. Skeleton Dancers to build and previz the choreography for this production. You must be OVER 18 and
2. Musical theatre performers to form the main cast who are OVER 18 and have a playing age of 15 to 17.
WILL YOU BE PAID?
Yes! This is an Equity/Pact TV agreement.
SKELETON DANCE TEAM
We are looking for a team of skeleton dancers to work with Paul Becker to build and previz the choreography for this production. These dancers will also be a part of the ensemble within the TV SPECIAL.
During rehearsals, they set the example & mentor the talent, providing our cast with clear references to follow, ensuring every performer can confidently step into their role. When we transition to filming, our skeleton crew becomes equally essential. They're continuously testing choreography, managing previz, rehearsing, and quickly adapting to changes—because, as you know, things always evolve on set.
