Juggling Tour In Europe: Call for Audition

Internationally established European dance company Spitfire Company in partnership with Kenya International Theatre Festival and Kenya Cultural Centre searches for the young free-style football artist for the international art project Vivat Messi that will premiere in Prague, Czech Republic with a subsequent European tour.

We are looking for a young (17-21) or very young-looking artist with a strong personal story, ideally a dancer who can master free-style football brilliantly and will be able to act on stage with both movement and words. Vivat Messi is a tribute to all young people who have a dream to achieve something one day. Maybe become a famous football player. And whose ability to overcome obstacles can be a role model for other young people.
