Burn the Floor

  • Theatre
  • Dance

Starring the world’s finest international champion dancers, Burn The Floor's new production Luminous showcases a melting pot of dance styles with infectious, rebellious energy and groundbreaking choreography.

The cast of 12 champion dancers from around the world fearlessly challenges the boundaries of the ballroom artform, supported by live musicians and vocalists, stunning costumes and dynamic production. It is more than a dance show, it is a pure theatrical experience. This new production is directed and choreographed by Jason Gilkison.

A hit on Broadway and loved in the West End.
