The Siwela Sonke Dance Trainee (SSDT) Programme is a rigorous, season-long training programme. SSDT seeks 10 talented dancers to be available weekdays, 09:00 to 17:00. The trainees will form part of the SSDT Company in a trainee capacity and will have opportunities for performance throughout the 2014/2015 season. A stipend will be offered to successful candidates for the duration of their tenure as SSDT trainees.

The Siwela Sonke Dance Trainee Programme is made possible through a grant from the National Lottery Distribution Trust Fund (NLDTF).

Auditions will take place on Thursday, 29 May from 08:00 to 17:00 at Siwela Sonke Dance Theatre Salbany, 1st Floor, 50 Albany Grove, Central Durban.

Candidates should arrive early and be available for call-backs on Friday, 30 May.

Siwela Sonke Dance Theatre operates on principles of non-racialism and equal opportunity. While every effort is made to create redress, the company strives for excellence and diversity. In this instance this audition is open to everyone, regardless of race or gender.
