Once dancers joined ballet, modern dance groups or chorus lines and did what they were directed to do. Today the art is more collaborative but still bound by old-fashioned structures impose by university dance studios. Today there are too many graduating students and little steady work, few auditions and decreasing opportunity for newcomers. The best dancers today are 'bodies for hire', those who are versatile, open-minded, independent and comfortable in every genre. Choreography has become a more democratic process in which dancers come to depend on each other.
