Nashville Ballet is seeking expressive, versatile dancers to join our Company and NB2 for the 2027–2028 season. We seek Artists that are committed to creating a culture of support to one another, and dedication to our community. Led by Artistic Director Nick Mullikin, our artistic vision is centered around the idea of using classical ballet vocabulary and technique to tell stories that range from classical to cutting edge. Our primary performances take place at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center. In recent years, Nashville Ballet has toured internationally, including London and cultural festivals in Mexico. Company: guaranteed minimum 37-week-per-year contract, competitive base weekly salary of $700, and comprehensive benefits including group medical, long-term disability and life insurance. NB2: base weekly stipend of $300, company class several times weekly, tuition-free training, access to School of Nashville Ballet classes and seasonal shoe allotment. NB2 Trainee Program: discounted tuition-based program at $3,500/year (valued at $10,000/year) with a dedicated daily trainee class.
Requirements
Artists interested in our company are encouraged to have at least one year of professional experience working with a company or second company. If you are a student graduating this year or have not had a chance to work professionally, we encourage you to select our second company, NB2, when applying. Video submissions should include: a short classical variation from the standard repertoire (in pointe shoes if applicable); a short contrasting contemporary variation; 3-5 minutes of barre work incorporating both sides; 3-5 minutes of center work including adagio, pirouettes, and petit and grand allegro; a CV with up to date contact information; and a headshot and 2-3 dance photos that reveal body proportions and line.
