On Stage America Competition

May 3rd, 4th, and 5th, my studio and I attended a dance competition called On Stage America in Baltimore. It was a three-day event. Anna, Caitlyn, Nicole, Rebecca and I performed our solos on Friday night. Anna, Caitlyn, Nicole, and Rebecca all received Gold and I received High Gold. On Saturday morning, Chelsea and Taylor performed their solos. We all returned to Baltimore to support them. Chelsea received High Gold for her jazz solo and Taylor received Platinum for her tap solo. (Platinum is the highest honor)


On Sunday, Katie performed her open solo and received Gold. Later on, Anna and I performed our jazz duet and received Gold also. Our duet was very good but was not very together and that is what hurt us. Next, was our lyrical small group which again was very good, but not together, so we received Gold. Finally it came down to everyone’s group dances. The middle schoolers received High Gold for both their jazz and their tap. The juniors (us) received Platinum for tap and High Gold for jazz.


This competition made the weekend very long but we all still had a lot of fun. Even though it was not our best, we always have May 10th to make up for it. We have yet another competition this coming weekend called Ticket to Broadway held at Severna Park, Maryland so I will let you know how that goes. It is Saturday, May 10th from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
