SYTYCD - Suprisingly WOWs you!
by Zastigfish on 2009-09-30Air Canada Centre - TorontoRating: 4 out of 5I just attended the So You Think You Can Dance 2009 Tour show. I admit that I went in with trepidation wondering what I had gotten myself into and if I was going to be stuck with an evening of High School Musical like entertainment (sorry to you HSM fans out there). Some of the dialogue and deliveries were skewed towards a younger demographic, but the banter was actually quite fun and the transitions were slick to keep everyone entertained and engaged. And of course the main reason why someone would attend a show like this was the DANCING. It was astounding and the skill and energy was completely a pleasant surprise. If I was lukewarm to start off with, I was fully into it by the 2nd or 3rd number. The skill level and the energy was incredible and these kids can dance! Anyone that was there did not leave disappointed at all. The preformances were identical to the show so not any longer than what any of us would have seen during the TV season. But to experience it live and to see the control, the power, the grace and the finesse was really something to behold. If you love dance I would highly recommend seeing this show when it comes around again. If you are skeptical but adventurous I would encourage you to think out of the box and experience it. It is a fun and entertaining show and you will see and feel the beauty and power of dance.
