Open a call to explore its skills and character. Select every call that fits you when you audition.
01Male CrewActors and movers with physical presence, character instincts, and the chemistry to make a working ship feel alive.
Deckhands · sailors · rogues
Make the ship feel worked, dangerous, and alive.
We want actors, movers, stunt-capable performers, martial artists, musicians, and lived-in personalities who can turn a deck into a working community. Bring weight, humor, loyalty, rivalry, and the sense that you have weathered a voyage before the scene begins.
- Physical acting
- Stage combat or martial arts
- Character movement
- Vocals or instruments welcome
02Female CrewPerformers who can build a fearless company through movement, vocals, stage combat, comedy, and ensemble storytelling.
Riggers · navigators · fighters
Rig the deck. Hold the line. Change the weather.
This call is for performers who can make competence theatrical: women with command, comic timing, vocal strength, physical intelligence, and the instincts to support a scene without disappearing inside it. Specialists and multidisciplinary artists are equally welcome.
- Ensemble acting
- Vocals and harmony
- Stage combat
- Comedy, rigging, or movement skills
03Female CourtesansActresses, singers, and dancers who can carry elegance, danger, wit, and the hidden politics of the world below.
Court figures · sirens · social power
Enter with elegance. Leave with the leverage.
The courtesans of Hidden Tide are strategists, witnesses, entertainers, and political forces. We are looking for actresses, singers, dancers, and hosts who can hold attention, shift status, land a joke, and reveal the intelligence beneath the spectacle. No single body type defines this company.
- Acting and status work
- Dance or cabaret performance
- Singing and musicality
- Improvisation, wit, and audience connection
04MusiciansLive instrumentalists and musical performers ready to become visible members of the Hidden Tide storyworld on screen and stage.
Players · vocalists · unusual instruments
Let the audience see where the pulse comes from.
We are building a band that belongs inside the story. Percussionists, taiko players, string players, winds, brass, vocalists, electronic artists, and unusual instrumentalists should be ready to perform with character—not hidden behind the scenery, but visible as part of the world.
- Live instrumental performance
- Taiko and world percussion
- Vocals or harmony
- Movement and on-camera presence
05DancersBold movers with musicality, stamina, character, and the appetite to help forge a signature pirate-pop movement language.
Commercial · contemporary · theatrical movement
Help invent the movement language of pirate pop.
We want dancers who can move between precision and character: commercial attack, contemporary texture, theatrical storytelling, partner work, and the rough physical vocabulary of a ship in motion. Technique matters. So does the face, intention, and story inside every count.
- Commercial or contemporary dance
- Theatrical storytelling
- Partnering and ensemble unison
- Acrobatics or fight movement welcome
