    Hello!

    I'm a grad film student, making my thesis film for the Film Directing Program at
    California Institute of the Arts. The film is based on Hawthorne's short story "The
    Canterbury Pilgrims".

    In the film we are doing a section of a Shaker Dance ritual. We need singer/dancers to
    create a Shaker community, who will sing a cappella and dance two or three different
    dance songs, and we are holding auditions THIS SUNDAY, TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. No dancing
    experience is necessary. However, the ability to carry a tune is a must.
