In the final night of competition dancing, Amy, Ben, Charlie & Talia kept raising the bar. All 4 dancers showcased their unique talents and any one of them could win.
Talia captivated with her stunning technique and breathtaking dramatic range. Amy radiated performance maturity and girl-next-door appeal. Ben was Gene-Kelly smooth and glowed with warmth and generosity. And Charlie combined dazzling moves with his wacky wit to leave the girls screaming for Dubbo’s Dean of Dance.
Their work is done. After being chosen from thousands of auditions and having survived a gruelling ten weeks since making Top 20, our dancers are now relying on you, Australia. They’ve thrilled, moved and entertained you. Now it’s time for you to reward their efforts. Who is your favourite dancer for 2009?
Top 4 Sunday Night Summary Charlie & Talia put a stake in the ground with a profoundly moving Lyrical piece and our ballerina then did a seamless shift into sexy for a Tango with Mr Reliable, Ben. His Hip Hop with Amy misfired for Jason but the fault lay with the costumes and chorey. Amy regrouped for a cheeky Samba with Charlie that highlighted her professionalism and his personality.
Chucky charmed again in a Gene Kelly tribute but Ben edged him in the dancing and won more fans with his generosity. Amy & Talia, wearing one high-heel and one pointe shoe, were impossible to separate in their duo before they all did solos that completely captured their 4 distinct personas. Each dancer performed 5 times and Matt said they’d “sleep well”. Possibly not until they find out how you’ve voted. Australia, get to it.
Top 4 Group Routine – Supple Hip Hop The biggest show of our Final 4’s lives opened with a Hip Hop piece by Supple that was light and fun - in contrast to what our dancers were actually feeling. The judges declined to pass judgment on their individual performances but Matt urged them to “dance your butts off”.
