APPLICATION DEADLINE8 October 202623:59 · London time

Can we transform
what destroys us?

S.I.N.S. is a ritualistic, dark and cinematic performance built through the body and live sound. Four women and four musicians inhabit an evolving visual world in which sin is not treated as moral failure, but as a wound, a learned behaviour and a possibility for change.

We are casting physical performers and live musicians who bring discipline, curiosity and emotional truth into the room. Each musician becomes the living extension of a character—not an accompaniment, but an active stage presence.

Three bodies.
Three transformations.

Each performer will develop an individual movement language while working as part of an ensemble. We welcome female-identifying actors, dancers and interdisciplinary performers who can communicate complex emotional journeys without spoken text.

01 / CHARACTER

Miss Fortune

Excess → dignity & pure love

A magnetic presence whose sensuality begins as performance and slowly becomes honesty, restraint and connection.

  • Cabaret or burlesque qualities
  • Strong theatrical presence
  • Fluid, circular movement
  • Sensuality with control
02 / CHARACTER

Aurora

Despair → joy & hope

A body weighed down by despair that gradually rediscovers light, resilience and the courage to remain present.

  • Strong ballet foundation
  • Emotional physicality
  • Musical sensitivity
  • Ability to embody vulnerability
03 / CHARACTER

Lux

Self-importance → empathy

Precise, driven and relentlessly occupied, Lux must allow control to fracture and make space for another human being.

  • Versatile actor-mover
  • Sharp, precise movement
  • Fast physical transitions
  • Commanding stage presence

03 / TRANSFORMATION

Your self-tape

Create a simple, unedited physical journey for your chosen character. We are interested in clarity, imagination and emotional transition—not production value.

Payment: this is a box-office-share engagement and there is no guaranteed upfront fee. Income will be based on an agreed share of net ticket revenue. Full terms will be confirmed in writing before accepting a place in the production.

LIVE MUSICIAN CASTING

Four instruments.
Four inner worlds.

The music is created live and in direct relationship with the performers. We are looking for musicians who can listen, adapt and respond theatrically, as well as play with confidence. Applicants must be available in London from 15 October through December 2026.

01 / AURORA

Violin

Depressed · Heavy · Crying

02 / MISS FORTUNE

Alto Saxophone

Seductive · Desirable · Charismatic

03 / INVIDIA

Accordion

04 / LUX

Piano

Busy · Repeating · Automatic

01 / PREPARED PIECE

Bring a two-minute piece

Please prepare a two-minute piece or extract that connects with the character themes assigned to your instrument.

Alto saxophone players: please tell us if you play any additional instruments. We are particularly interested in musicians who can also double on clarinet or flute.

02 / IMPROVISATION TASK

Respond in the moment

You will be asked to create an improvised response to either a photograph or a graphic score. You will have one minute to study the image beforehand.

This is not intended to assess your harmonic or melodic ability. We want to understand how creatively you respond and how readily you adapt during rehearsals.

03 / CONVERSATION

Be ready to discuss

  • Your experience performing in a chamber ensemble
  • Your experience working in theatre, on stage or in a pit band
  • How you collaborate when a director, composer or musician asks you to change or adapt your part
