Ballroom couples: Is cruise work worth it?
My partner and I have been dancing together for a long time and we are considering applying for cruise ship jobs. We want to keep dancing together rather than going into teaching individually. Does the industry still favor hiring couples for shows, and what does the audition process look like for a pair? Any advice on how to stand out would be greatly appreciated.

Hiring couples is actually very common for production shows, and many cruise lines actively look for established pairs. It makes the transition easier since you already have chemistry. I suggest looking at this resource https://www.risingstars.com.ua/castings/ballroom-couples-cruise-jobs.php which provides a clear roadmap for couples seeking employment. It outlines exactly what casting directors are looking for in terms of style and presentation. If you work well together, it is honestly one of the best ways to keep your partnership alive.
