Snippets: Daniel Radcliffe; George Sampson; Got To Dance, Move It

Harry Potter star, Daniel Radcliffe, will be appearing on Broadway in How To Succeed in Business - and is having dance lessons! From the clip I saw on the 'Making Of' documentary yesterday, he's not kidding about the shuffling! (Hoping to see Deathly Hallows next week!)

George Sampson is writing a book, his life story apparently. He's what, 16? 17? But Britain's Got Talent, Streetdance 3D, Waterloo Road - I guess he has packed a fair bit in already!

Got To Dance is being brought to life in an Exhibition at Excel between 4th and 6th March, featuring classes, perfomances and shopping. This is followed by Move It, Upper Street Events dance exhbition at Olympia between 10th and 13th March, also with performances, classes, seminars and traders.

Butlins Street Dance Festival Weekend

Butlins first ever Street Dance Festival will hit the Minehead resort this November, showcasing the UK’s top urban dancers, including Street Dance 3D stars Diversity and Britain’s Got Talent stars Twist & Pulse.

To celebrate the festival, the hottest talent on the British urban dance scene took to the high streets recently and treated unsuspecting shoppers to awe-inspiring performances. Disguised as members of the public, the dancers stunned passersby with jaw-dropping routines to launch the event.

Mike Godolphin, Head of Entertainment at Butlins said: “Shoppers had the time of their lives when they saw the phenomenal performances. The Butlins Street Dance Festival will be absolutely amazing – we’ve even got Diversity exclusively previewing their up and coming UK tour. This was only a hint of what we’ve got on offer for the UK’s dance fans!”

This 3 day street dance event is the first place you’ll see Diversity, stars of box office hit StreetDance 3D, giving us a preview of their up and coming UK tour, plus performances by Twist & Pulse and Peridot, as well as finalists from the 2010 Street Dance XXL Championships.

The weekend ticket includes 3 nights accommodation, free access to all of the star performances, live urban dance shows and street dance classes for all, plus Splash Waterworld, funfair rides, sports coaching and so much more – all included in the price.

So get you, your family and friends down to Butlins Minehead 19-22 November 2010 to experience the unique style and culture of street dance at Butlins family Resort in Somerset. Top tip: the better grade of accommodation you book, the closer you’ll be seated to the stage when Diversity perform live in our concert arena on Resort. Book early to avoid disappointment – these places go quickly!
Also - George Sampson's Street Party! Appearing on dates between September 17th and November 1st 2010!

News in Brief: There's a lot ...

Diversity are hitting the tour trail, with a show built around routines where toys come to life! I cannot wait - but I'll have to, because it doesn't start till March! And I'm liking the sound of the X-Factor meets Britain's Got Talent Show (scroll right to the end!) on the Isle of Man - with George Sampson and Signature joining Diversity! (And - Stavros Flatley!) The London and Essex group are also joined by George and fellow streetdancers Flawless in a 3D film called - wait for it - Streetdance! But there's ballet dancers in it too! 2010 looking good!

Camilla has left the jungle - the reigning Strictly champion was unsurprisingly left exhausted due to the lack of food on offer, having a higher metabolism than any of her camp mates. Knowing that the food dwindles even further as the show goes on, it's a sensible decicion - nice to have you home safe and well, Cam.

Strictly itself will be reverting to a two part show on a Saturday night for the final three weeks, to allow the public more voting time, and not, as no doubt our red top friends will suggest, because they're scared of X-Factor and/or viewers and/or Arlene and/or the BBC Trust have complained and/or it's all falling to pieces cos Brucie was ill blah blah blah blah ...

Here's a nice in-depth article with Ricky and Erin and a review of Alesha's own live show.

In Dancing With The Stars news, Kym and Maksim will be joining Burn The Floor next week and former contestant Melissa Rycroft joined the Professionals for the Bee Gees You Should Be Dancing performance.

Trav's thoughts are in for this weeks So You Think You Can Dance and Dancing With The Stars- you need to scroll down to the fourth post and then work back up to read them all in chronological order - or you could flit about like I do, reading bit and watching the vids! The main most important thing you need to know is ... oh, no, I won't spoil it for you!
