Community Center Theatre Welcomes BURN THE FLOOR, 9/29-10/10

BURN THE FLOOR is coming to Sacramento, direct from Broadway. The tour features "So You Think You Can Dance" alums Anya Garnis, Pasha Kovalev, Ashleigh Di Lello, Ryan Di Lello, Robbie Kmetoni, Janette Manrara and Karen Hauer. All seven have been seen on TV's "So You Think You Can Dance," in the US (Anya & Pasha, Top 10 Finalists and Season 7 All Stars; Ashleigh & Ryan Di Lello, Janette Manrara and Karen Hauer, Top 10 Finalists) and Australia (Robbie Kmetoni, 2010 Winner).
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.

BURN THE FLOOR, the electrifying Latin and Ballroom dance spectacular that has thrilled audiences in more than 30 countries, brings the fire and passion of their live performance to the Sacramento Community Center Theater for two weeks Sept. 29-Oct. 10 as the opening production of the Broadway Sacramento 2010-11 season. Tickets for BURN THE FLOOR are on sale today at the Community Center Theater box office, (916) 808-5181, the Wells Fargo Pavilion box office, (916) 557-1999, or online through tickets.com. Broadway Sacramento is presented by California Musical Theatre and sponsored by Wells Fargo.

With BURN THE FLOOR, you will feel, live on stage, all the passion, drama and sizzling excitement of 20 gorgeous champion dancers in a true theatrical experience, a performance with a grace and athleticism that The New York Times calls "Dazzling!" The Times (London) calls it "the summer's hottest ticket"!

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.

BURN THE FLOOR is directed and choreographed by Jason Gilkison.
