2026 Auditions Rambert is seeking exceptional dancers to join the company for It’s a Sin, a new touring production inspired by Russell T Davies’ landmark Channel 4 series. Rambert transforms this iconic story into a powerful dance production exploring love, friendship and survival, directed and choreographed by Rambert’s Artistic Director, Benoit Swan Pouffer. We are seeking dancers for fixed-term contracts from October 2026 to July 2027, with the potential for extension. Applicants should meet the following criteria: • A high level of technical proficiency in both ballet and contemporary dance is essential. • Strong theatrical performance skills and experience in narrative performance are highly desirable. • Applicants must be versatile, collaborative artists with a fast pick-up ability. • Applicants must be willing to work primarily as swings, learning and maintaining multiple tracks across the production, with the potential to perform an ensemble track in It’s a Sin. • Significant professional performance experience is desirable; however, recent graduates will also be considered. The engagement is specifically for the creation and touring of It’s a Sin, with potential for extension and future opportunities with Rambert. Please note, the show is based on It’s A Sin (TV series) and deals with topics of AIDS, death, sex, drugs and LGBTQIA topics and historical events in the UK. Therefore the swing dancer will be required to cover dance tracks that include various nudity levels, simulated sexual actions and contact kissing (possibly staged in both stylised and realistic styles). Personal boundaries will be taken into consideration, however, we are searching for dancers that are comfortable performing vulnerable themes of this nature and the level of content required.
