‘Superstars of Dance’ features a competition featuring masters of dance genres from Ireland, India, USA, Argentina, China, Russia, South Africa and Australia. Each team is comprised of two soloists, one duo and a larger group, all representing their country’s best known dance forms.
Superstars of Dance is a reality television show that debuted on January 4, 2009 on the NBC Network. The show, which features dance routines from eight different countries around the world, is hosted by Michael Flatley, and co-hosted by Susie Castillo. It was created by executive producers Nigel Lythgoe and Simon Fuller, co-producers of So You Think You Can Dance and American Idol.
On November 17, 2008 NBC announced it had ordered a new reality program titled Superstar Dancers of the World, which would feature competitors from eight international teams and would be produced by Simon Fuller and Nigel Lythgoe of American Idol fame.
NBC billed the show as “equal parts sporting event, rock concert and artistic exhibition” and Lythgoe called it “the most challenging and exhilarating project I’ve ever done.”
By mid-December, the show was renamed Superstars of Dance and the debut was set for January 4, 2009. Michael Flatley was chosen to host, and Susie Castillo was given a co-hosting position.
Superstars of Dance differs from similar TV dance competitions in a number of ways.
It features professionals instead of amateurs, with several of the contestants taking time off their world tours to participate. Additionally, the contestants were chosen by their respect countries, rather than by the show’s producers.
Flatley has said Superstars a lot like a sporting competition, even comparing it the Olympic Games.
The winners are not decided by audience votes, but rather by a panel of eight judges. The producers felt that it would be unfair to decide the winner by phone-in votes, assuming the American public would probably just vote for the American team.
Furthermore, unlike most dance shows, Superstars does not have a live component.
The show features a group, a duo, and two soloists from each of eight different countries - Argentina, Australia, China, India, Ireland, Russia, South Africa and the United States.
A significant number of participants have tie-ins to a previous Lythgoe and Fuller dance show, So You Think You Can Dance.
Anya Garnis, Pasha Kovalev, Giselle Peacock, and Robert Muraine were all contestants on that show, while Jason Gilkison and Nakul Dev Mahajan choreographed for it.
