BEST DANCERS AROUND THE WORLD:
Dancers
perform in a variety of settings, including opera,
musical theater, and other musical productions, and
may present folk, ethnic, tap, jazz,
and other popular kinds of dance.
They also perform in television,
movies, music videos,
and commercials, in which they also may sing and act.
Dancers most often perform as part
of a group, although a few top artists perform
solo.
Dancers work
with choreographers, who create original dances
and develop new interpretations of existing dances.
Because few dance routines are written down, choreographers
instruct performers at rehearsals to achieve the desired
effect. In addition, choreographers usually are involved
in auditioning performers.
Work environment.
Dance is strenuous. Many dancers
stop performing by their late thirties because of
the physical demands on the body. However, some continue
to work in the field as choreographers, dance
teachers and coaches, or artistic directors.
Others move into administrative positions, such as
company managers. A few celebrated dancers,
however, continue performing most of their lives.
