*Up to 10-minute submission slot in Performance Series (14th Street Playhouse – Main Stage)
*30 minutes of tech rehearsal time in theater

*Choreographers are responsible for transportation to Atlanta, if selected. Please note: If a choreographer would rather use local dancers, Dance Canvas can assist with a rehearsal process in the absence of the choreographer. In this case, the choreographer need only travel to Atlanta to select dancers/set their piece and then return the week of the show.

*Serious inquiries only
