Battle Of The Dance

Battle of the Dance at the Flamingo Showroom was outstanding and worth seeing. It was a competition between Celtic and Flamenco very talented dances. The choreography and music was wonderful. The show was very fast moving and completely enjoyable. There was an intermission act of a hand shadow performer who made animals and famous actors using his hands and hair. He was unbelievable. Again it is a show worth seeing and will be here for a limited engagement.

What an enjoyable show! It was a last-​minute offering and I debated going, but after my husband showed me the write-​up in today’s LVRJ, there was no question. Definitely the right decision!
It’s in the Flamingo Showroom, just the right size for a show like this. We had great seats, and the performers were spectacular. I love Celtic dancing; I’ve always been on the fence about Flamenco, but nevertheless, all the dancers were so talented and the choreography so engaging that I enjoyed almost every minute of it. The two male leads and the female Celtic dancer were beyond compare.
The one tango number seemed superfluous, though I love that dance. I grew to be a real fan after seeing a tango show in Buenos Aires. But since this was supposed to be a battle between the Celtic and Flamenco dancers, I can’t figure out its purpose here. And, truthfully, the tango numbers on Dancing With the Stars have been better!
Intermission brought out a hand shadow performer who skillfully entertained with take-​offs on Elvis, Satchmo, Jerry Lewis, Ray Charles, and others. He even used his own hair as a prop. Total hoot!
If you get a chance to see this show during its limited engagement, grab the brass ring and don’t miss it!
