----What
makes BodyHype Unique? BodyHype maintains a
small company (currently about 25 members) of both men and women who work
together to produce innovative and entertaining choreography and dancing. As
a small company, BodyHype values versatile and engaging dancers, challenging
all to choreograph and perform in diverse styles. As a member of BodyHype,
one gains the opportunity to dance in many venues, each time amongst dancers
and friends dedicated to proficiency in technique, choreography, and
performance quality. |

----How are BodyHype
members involved in other ways on campus? It’s a long (and
in-exhaustive) list… Varsity sports, sprint
football, crew, swimming and diving; Triangle Club,
Princeton University Players, A capella groups; Princeton Performing
Arts Council, Annual Fashion Show
executive committee and models, Tae Kwan Do Tournaments, Hold campus jobs; Fraternity and
Sorority members, Religious groups, Eating Clubs, Study Abroad programs In other words, the
commitment to the company is a real but workable arrangement. And, our
members rock. |

----How does BodyHype
interact with the student body? The red BodyHype
jackets are notorious around campus and people certainly know when they see
red posters covering campus that it’s that time of year again — our shows are
held during Reading Period as a welcome diversion from the (incessant)
studying. We look forward to
tech week as a time when we get to adopt several students as stage managers,
lighting designers, and sound operators, without whom the show wouldn’t go
on! Consistently sold out, the completed shows feature an intimate connection
with the audience which always yields an entertaining outcome. BodyHype dancers are eager to connect with the student
body—whether it’s from stage, out dancing at the Street, or in a random
courtyard where the words, “When I say Body, you say…” can be heard at any
hour of the day (or night). Join the "BodyHype Dance Company" facebook fan page to keep updated… |

----Ok, I want to try out! What are auditions
like? Held bi-annually,
auditions are an informal and fun way to meet and dance with the company.
Please see our “Auditions” page for more
information — we’d love to see you there! |

----How do BodyHype’s alumni stay connected to
the company? What do they offer to the BodyHype experience? Alumni return annually
to attend BodyHype shows, where they have reserved seating and the
instructions to cheer as loudly as possible. In addition, select alumni
return as guest choreographers to produce pieces for the current company. Presently,
alumni are planning a performance with current company members for the 2009
Reunions! There is a strong
BodyHype alumni network, especially in |
