Experience in Contemporary, Hip Hop, Street and/or Commercial Dance is preferred, and additional unique skill sets are welcomed. If you can sing, play an instrument or do acting as well, please let us know as versatile performers are very welcome.

We are encouraging submissions from all nationalities and genders. We are searching for dancers who have a strong work ethic and who are open to the variety of styles of dance and performance that WOW shows involve.

2025 rehearsals begin 2 August and the show season runs until 4 October (a nine-week contract) in Wellington/Te Whanganui-a-Tara. Performers must be available full-time within this date range.

Being part of the WOW Show is a memorable experience – our cast and crew return year after year to reconnect and hit the stage again. In addition to performing, you will make friends, expand your skills, and have fun performing to large-scale crowds in the TSB Arena throughout the show season. You will get to work alongside like-minded individuals who are passionate and a strong creative team who work hard each year to create a memorable and unique event.
