Dance Jobs in the UK

We are casting jazz dancers for a Caribbean cruise season running from November 2026 to April 2027. The contract covers four production shows and a poolside entertainment programme. All accommodation, meals and travel are included. Cruise ship work is unique. You live where you work, you perform multiple times a week, and you share a small cabin with another dancer. If that sounds like an adventure rather than a challenge, and you have the versatility and professionalism to deliver high-quality shows consistently, we want to hear from you.

A major gaming convention at ExCeL London. The headline stage show features a hip-hop dance crew performing a choreographed set that ties into the event's theme. The performance is approximately eight minutes, with three shows across the two-day event. We want hip-hop dancers who bring serious energy and can hype a crowd of gaming fans. The atmosphere is loud, competitive and fun, and your performance needs to match it.

A one-off concert event at the Roundhouse in London for an electronic music artist. The show features two contemporary dancers performing alongside the artist as part of the visual staging. The dancers are on stage for the full 90-minute set and respond to the music in a blend of choreographed and improvised movement. We need contemporary dancers who are comfortable in a concert environment and can hold the stage alongside a music performance without competing with it. The movement is atmospheric and visually driven rather than dance-show flashy.

We are hosting its annual charity gala at The Dorchester hotel in December 2026. The evening includes a floor show featuring show dancers performing between courses. The setting is black tie and the audience includes high-profile donors and public figures. We need polished, elegant show dancers who can deliver a world-class performance in one of London's most prestigious venues. Reherseal fee paid aswell

We are commissioning a large-scale physical theatre and dance piece for the 2026 festival, performed in the open air along the banks of the River Tees. The piece involves eight performer-dancers and is performed twice over the festival weekend. We want physical theatre performers who can deliver large-scale, visually ambitious outdoor work. The audience is a general public who may have never seen contemporary dance or physical theatre before, so accessibility and visual impact are key.

We run a monthly Middle Eastern-themed supper club in Central London featuring live music and dance. We are looking for belly dancers to join our artist roster for events from July 2026 onwards. Each event features a solo or duet performance of approximately 20 minutes alongside a live oud and percussion ensemble. We want dancers with genuine training in Middle Eastern dance forms who can perform with authenticity and grace in an intimate dining environment. This is not a novelty act. It is a celebration of the art form and we treat it with the respect it deserves.

We specialise in motion capture for video game development. We are casting contemporary dancers for mocap sessions capturing movement data for a major upcoming title. The sessions take place at our studio in Leamington Spa across several days in September. We need dancers who can perform precise, repeatable movement while wearing a motion capture suit. If you are curious about how dance intersects with technology and gaming, this is a fascinating opportunity.

We run a monthly club night at a 400-capacity venue in Manchester's Northern Quarter. We are looking for house dancers to become part of the regular performance roster, appearing at events from June 2026 onwards. The role involves freestyle and structured performance within the club environment, elevated platforms and the main dance floor. This is club culture, not a stage show. We want dancers who genuinely love house music and whose movement comes from that place. If you trained in house dance, go to jams, or your body just moves when you hear a four-on-the-floor beat, get in touch.

Providing live dance entertainment for the Goodwood Revival vintage festival weekend in September 2026. The event requires two swing dance couples to perform choreographed routines and lead social dance sessions across three days. The style is 1930s/40s era Lindy Hop, Charleston and partner jazz. This is a weekend engagement in a period-themed environment. You will be in costume for the full event and need to be comfortable performing outdoors, interacting with festival-goers and leading beginner-friendly social dance sessions between your scheduled performances.

We are producing a music video for a Welsh singer-songwriter in support of a mental health charity. The video features a solo lyrical dance performance filmed in the Welsh countryside and an abandoned chapel. The tone is reflective and emotionally grounded rather than technically flashy. We are looking for a lyrical dancer who can tell a story through movement without it feeling overly theatrical or sentimental. The song is about grief and the choreography needs to honour that without being heavy-handed. If you are the kind of dancer who can make an audience feel something without trying too hard, we would love to hear from you.
