“Superstars of Dance,” hosted by Michael Flatley (“Lord of the Dance”), is a breathtaking international dance competition led by executive producers Nigel Lythgoe and Simon Fuller, two of the masterminds behind “American Idol” and “So You Think You Can Dance.” The unique series will pit the masters of various dance genres from eight countries against each other. Equal parts sporting event, rock concert and artistic exhibition, “Superstars of Dance” is poised to become one the greatest spectacles of dance performance ever seen on television.
Eight countries will participate in the competition with each team comprised of two soloists, one duo and one larger group. Viewers will get to know the competitors and the coaches through the trials and tribulations, both behind the scenes and on the stage. The stakes are high for these artists, as they are not only representing themselves, but also their dance form and their entire nation.
The eight countries currently scheduled to participate include: Ireland, India, USA, Argentina, China, Russia, South Africa and Australia.
“Superstars of Dance” is from 19 Entertainment. Nigel Lythgoe (“American Idol,” “So You Think You Can Dance”) and Simon Fuller (“American Idol,” “So You Think You Can Dance”) are the executive producers.
