Useful Information
The company is open to anyone aged 18+ who has completed Tap Improvers 2 at City Academy (or equivalent), or who has previous tap performance experience.
Instead of a formal audition, you’ll attend a Tap Dance Company Taster class, where you’ll join a rehearsal. This helps both you and the Director assess whether the company is the right fit.
Membership covers weekly rehearsals, showcases, guest masterclasses, plus exclusive benefits such as free tasters, discounted courses, and complimentary dance classes.
Membership runs on a monthly fee of £80, with a minimum period of 3 months. You can cancel at any time with 14 days’ notice before your next payment.
You’ll need to be confident at improvers level or above, with a solid grasp of tap foundations and some performance experience.
