The big cruise liners often have a big dance production but do not tend to hire soloist dance acts though they will hire a soloist to join their team. Typically the way it works is they have a house choreographer. You arrive at the port of departure two weeks prior and that run's group rehearses the show until take off. You absolutely need to have a background in jazz, ballet, latin etc. as you'd be doing their choreography. My brother in-law's talent agency brokers a lot of cruise ship contracts... and I've know a lot of dancers who've auditioned/landed these jobs.
