FLUID MOVEMENT IS Rolling out a New pitch process!

or at least trying to! 🫣

We're opening up the idea-to-water-ballet process and inviting the Fluid Movement community into it.

Here's how (we think 😊) it's going to work:

PITCH → DEVELOP → SHOWCASE → SELECTION → MAKE THE SHOW 

💡 PITCH - NOW!
Anyone can pitch an idea for a Fluid Movement water ballet. It doesn't need to be a finished script or a complete production plan. Just an idea that you could see our community wanting to join in and make happen.

🔎 DEVELOP -  NOVEMBER & DECEMBER
A brand new Water Ballet Artistic Steering Committee, made up of Fluid Movement artists and community members, will review the pitches and work with a handful of creators to develop their ideas.

🎤 SHOWCASE - EARLY JANUARY 🤞
The developed ideas will be presented at a community Water Ballet Pitch Showcase. You'll get to see what people are imagining, meet the creators, and maybe discover an idea that makes you want to take the plunge and make it. This will NOT be a public vote!

🎯 SELECTION - MID-JANUARY
After the showcase, the committee will advise Fluid Movement's Artistic Director, who will select the concept that becomes the 2027 water ballet.

🎉 MAKE THE SHOW - FEBRUARY THRU JULY
Then we get to work on another incredible water ballet.

Here’s how you can get involved right now, and you can do both:

1. Pitch a weird, wonderful, or whathaveyou idea for a water ballet

Pitch submissions are open through November 8.

2. Join our new Water Ballet Artistic Steering Committee to help turn those ideas into viable shows

Committee applications are open through November 1.
