Ignite Dance Studio #3
864 North 2475 West
Cedar City, UT
To all who love dance and dream of performing.
The audition is open to all dancers
16 years old and above, including all ages of adults. Chosen dancers will become company
members of JMDC for our upcoming October 7-12, 2026, and December 15 - 22. 2026
productions. We will be rehearsing throughout the summer and into the fall, so this is a serious
commitment where you can work on a professional level over an extended period of time to
improve your technical and performance abilities.
JMDC's Artistic Director, John Mead strives to create original, authentic, deeply felt
choreographic work that speaks to fundamental, universal human values. He is the Founder and
Artistic Director of the John Mead Dance Company, which, after having been successfully based
in Singapore for 15 years, has recently relocated to Cedar City, UT. Mr. Mead is internationally
recognized as a choreographer, performer and educator. Working professionally over the past 35
years, he has choreographed over 200 works, which have been performed in Canada, China,
France, Greece, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Singapore, Switzerland, Taiwan, and the
United States.
JMDC's mission as a professional dance company in Southern Utah, is to provide a much-needed
professional career path in dance for aspiring local dancers. Students graduating from area dance
studios and university dance departments, currently must travel far outside of the Southern Utah
area to find adult, professional work in dance. JMDC seeks to address this need by providing
professional work opportunities in dance right here in Cedar City.
