AUDITION NOTICE
The 2007 Seattle Erotic Art Festival (seattleerotic.org), taking place on March 16-18, 2007 at the new Fenix (1700 First Ave. S.) in Seattle, seeks performance artists age 18+ with unique and diverse talents to be part of several interactive performances throughout the festival weekend.

Talented individuals or troupes are encouraged to be a part of creating the exciting live experience to complement the juried and invited fine art on display.

SEAF's theme in 2007 is "Art Noir," replicating or modernizing the lush, iconic styles of the early part of the 20th century, with visions and motions that equivocate dark/moody/gritty, seductive, classy, tailored, styles of the various eras, with neo- or pseudo-era abstract interpretations thereof. Performances should be erotic/sensual (but not pornographic) in nature. We are looking for truly unique acts that intrigue the senses with striking visuals, movement/dance, possibly sound, and/or tactile experiences. We would love to feature talented performers representing global cultures, a variety of body shapes, sizes, ages, and balanced gender (biological or not).

Some performance ideas we are thinking of -- but definitely not limited to -- are:
• Dancers – i.e. Argentine-style tango, flamenco, salsa
• poised drag performances (male or female)
• innovative cabaret (but not "typical" burlesque) acts
• mimes/contortionists/acrobats in sensual situations
If you have talents that you'd like to contribute, or if you already have an act that you think would be appropriate for the theme, we encourage you to audition. Please send your letter of interest via email to the Performance Director. Please include:

-Your name
-Performance act title/talent
-Brief description of your act/talent and your experience
-Your phone number so we can call you to schedule a slot or ask questions
You may also include:
-Performance resumes (list shows, training, etc.)
-Headshot or performance photo (no larger than 600x400 pixels) or
video (URLs only, no attachments)
Auditions will be held Dec. 9, 10, 11 with callbacks on Dec. 17.

If you cannot make these dates, feel free to contact us anyway and we may be able to arrange for a special time to meet with you.

Performers will receive exposure during the festival as well as in SEAF public relations; hospitality food/beverages during performance; and passes to the Festival.
