Disney Extra Credit - Fall 2012 - (Page 23)

In addition, the dancers perform short vignettes nightly in the ship’s adult-centric entertainment district, Europa. Featuring a variety of bars inspired by European countries, Europa’s nightly dance schedule requires the performers to dance an Irish jig one night, a romantic Parisian number the next and an upbeat “London Rocks” dance routine another evening. With such a wide variety of styles, Stacey says that versatility is key. “Dance is always changing, it’s always evolving,” she remarks. “Immerse yourself in all the different styles. Take classes in everything.” Marcus also offers this advice: “Really focus on education for the longevity of your career. I’ve really seen that you can relate your academic studies to dance and apply it to what you’re learning in dance, then link those teachings together to become a better dancer.” But what’s the best part of being a dancer on a cruise ship? For Stacey it’s meeting other people working onboard, who hail from more than 60 different countries. “We’re like a family,” Stacey says. “It’s great. You get to meet a lot of new people and go to different ports. We went to St. Thomas and Cozumel, Mexico, which I would probably not have Scan the code had the opportunity to see to go behind the if it weren’t for Disney. I’m scenes on the really excited to be here!” Disney Fantasy Marcus, Kathleen & Stacey To participate in a Disney Performing Arts dance workshop, visit disneyperformingarts.com/magazine or call 866-924-6145.
