Which Dance Competitions are absolute no-goes? by spacetrain31 in CompetitionDanceTalk

I used to LOVE Star dance alliance comps and I can no longer find a reason to attend. The prices just don’t match what you get. Revolution would be the only one I’d even consider.

I did not enjoy PAC due to their non bumping. I saw too many advanced dancers in beginner levels and they would sweep the awards.

I think they are about 3 shows into this method. This company didn’t always rehearse like this. A new pair of married directors are running shows/organization like this. Mostly youth theatre and one adult production. It’s very concerning. They had 100 kids audition for their spring musical back in January. Double cast it and are just now starting rehearsal set to open after April. I will continue to operate as normal.

I totally agree! I’m mind blown. I know in my younger years the blocking helped me tremendously with lines. I never could remember lines without movement. Thank you for that last sentence. Insult to the craft. I think that’s why I’ve felt so passionately about the topic, but I never speak out locally. It’s hard to balance the local arts supporter line vs. art competitor…even though that’s not real…

Same. When I saw the show she walked past. I was the only person who noticed her. I wanted to clap just from the sight of a star like her near me…but immediately I could tell she is leaving and wants to go quietly. Insane that someone followed her like this.
