Years before Dancing with the Stars and So You Think You Can Dance turned ballroom dancing into must-see TV, one sizzling show was setting stages ablaze around the globe.

Direct from its record-breaking run on Broadway, featuring all-new choreography, BURN THE FLOOR is Ballroom - Reinvented.

*Will your kids like Rock of Ages as much as you will? I think they will have a fine time, but you should know that some of the costumes, dancing and language may not be appropriate for kids under the age of 14.

More than fifty years ago one musical changed theater forever. Now it's back on Broadway mesmerizing audiences once again.

The new Broadway cast album of WEST SIDE STORY recently won the 2010 Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album. The Bernstein and Sondheim score is considered to be one of Broadway's finest and features such classics of the American musical theatre as "Something's Coming," "Tonight," "America," "I Feel Pretty" and "Somewhere."
