Miami Hotel Holds Auditions For Digital Dancer

miami_skylineMIAMI (AP) — Hotel managers in Miami are holding auditions to find a new dancer’s silhouette to groove on a 19-story digital display.

The InterContinental Miami debuted the digital dancer last year as part of a $30 million renovation. The downtown Miami hotel will hold auditions Thursday to find a new dancer to light up the city’s nighttime skyline.

General manager Robert Hill tells The Miami Herald (http://hrld.us/17K6Pau ) that the woman currently dancing provocatively on the hotel exterior “was meant to represent Miami.” Hill says it’s “urban, it’s fresh yet at the same time it’s a little bit edgy.”

Hill says the hotel now wants to feature local performers — male or female. Miami City Ballet principal dancer Jeanette Delgado will help judge the auditions.

Winners will be chosen by Friday night.
