The Greatest Dancer

The competition continues as the remaining ten acts take to the stage for another of our live challenge shows. This week they must master a whole new challenge, and for tonight’s theme we open the Props Box, where the objects they must handle range from ladders and canes to a chessboard.

The Greatest Dancer goes live for the very first time this series, as the final 12 acts dance on stage for the viewers' votes. The Dance Captains begin the live shows with three acts each, as they hope to guide them all the way to the final, to become The Greatest Dancer, win £50,000 and perform on Strictly Come Dancing. For their routines each act is given a specific challenge that they must include in their performance. This week’s theme is Best of British, so the acts tackle routines representing everything from afternoon tea to Peaky Blinders. Just as in the auditions, the live studio audience still vote if they like the performances or not, however it’s all down to the viewers at home to decide who will dance again next week, as only their votes will determine which ten acts make it through, and which two acts are going straight home. All this, plus the incredible street dance crew Diversity, including host Jordan Banjo, will be performing a unique routine.

It's the final week of auditions, followed by the callbacks where the Dance Captains each pick two more contestants to complete the teams they will take through to next week's live show.

This week's auditions feature acts showing off all styles of dance, from ballet to Afrobeats, street to ballroom and contemporary to tap, as they give the performances of their lives in the hope of opening the mirror. Expect dramatic auditions, outstanding talent and jaw-dropping surprises.

The auditions continue, with the audience holding the power.
