Dance show Burn the Floor comes to the West End's Shaftesbury Theatre from tonight, March 6 for a six-month run. Stars Kristina Rihanoff and Robin Windsor are set to join 16 other dancers for a journey through ten styles of ballroom dance.
Burn the Floor is a breathtaking blend of Latin and Ballroom dance first conceived as a special performance at Sir Elton John's 50th birthday celebration in 1997. Two years later, the show made its world premiere in the U.K. and quickly took the globe by storm.
Helmed by producers Harley Medcalf, former World Champion dancers Peta Roby and Jason Gilkison, From Harlem's hot nights at The Savoy, where dances such as the Lindy, Foxtrot and Charleston were born, to the Latin Quarter where the Cha-Cha, Rumba and Salsa steamed up the stage, Burn the Floor takes audiences on a journey through the passionate drama of dance. The elegance of the Viennese Waltz, the exuberance of the Jive, the intensity of the Paso Doble - audiences will experience them all, as well as the Tango, Samba, Mambo, Quickstep, and Swing. It's Ballroom dance with a sexy 21st century edge.
