Tap, bollywood, hiphop, improvisation, singing, contemporary, jazz, waacking, house, waving, ballet, solos, duets, groups, you name it....it was in the show!
Sam and I created a piece that was a secret right up until the very end,
Not many people know this, but when Rosina came to BDC, Commercial/HipHop completely scared her. For our first week assessments, she stayed up all night attempting to perfect the HipHop assessment and before doing it cried as she felt she just couldn't do it.
With thanks to all our amazing friends, from the beginnings of ghetto with Malcolm, encouragement in lessons from the greatest hip hop dancers Maria and Magda, classes from amazing teachers like Autumn, Luam, Neil and Jared and from moral support from Ali at the back of La Jon...Rosina changed her concentration at christmas to hip hop, walks confidently into Hiphop classes and 'weeerks'!
Last night we did our peformance project at BDC, everyone expected us to do a contemporary duet...a fused hiphop it was with waacking and house too... 6months ago Rosina wouldnt have stood up in front of me and done commercial...last night she stood up in front of everyone and some of the greatest hiphop dancers in the world and killed it!
We were also involved in a contemporary piece which we will get a video of asap and Sam was part of a musical theatre piece from Dreamgirls.
Our favourite pieces from the show were;
Rhythm of War Drum's - contemporary by Chri Stuewe
A Letter to Whitney- Singing by Pasqulino
The Waacking piece - by Madeline
And Ali's solo.
The atmosphere at the studio was great, we were there at 8.45am for a tech and rehearsal and then had normal classes all day , warmed up and it was show time. The 8am rehearsals all paid off and the show was brilliant.
Our wonderful friend, Malcolm, (and Stuewe and Kyle) all won the Outstanding Student award, congratualitons boys, very well deserved!
