AFTER sweeping the board at an
Ormskirk competition two weeks ago,
dancers from Burscough’s Kelly
Shirley School of Dance, have had
major success at a prestigious
Liverpool Dance competition.
A total of 41 of the schools dancers
returned to the Northwest Dance
Challenge 2012 at the Liverpool
Empire on Sunday, November 15 to
defend their title of Northwest Dance
Challenge Cabaret Champions 2011.
They walked away not only with
their title intact, but also added the
Open Classical title to their credits,
with three first places and three
trophies across the competition.
Dancers competed in the 16 years
and under Cabaret Section with their
routine ‘Jive Me Crazy’, which took
Report by Henry James
the first award of the night, closely
followed by a first place for
‘Reflections’ in the Open Cabaret
section and then ‘Titanium’ took first
place in the Open Classical section.
School Principal Kelly Tobin said: “I
would like to say a massive
congratulations to all my amazing
students for completing ‘the hat trick’
at the Liverpool Empire. They were
delighted to have been awarded the
‘triple’ and enjoyed every minute of
their performances at the Liverpool
Empire.
“The standard of this competition
was extremely high this year so to
retain our position as winners was an
exceptional feat; to walk away with
one winners title, let alone three, is
incredible. I think we may be needing
more shelf space for the three
enormous trophies.”
Event organiser Sharon Collins of
Smile Productions added:
“Congratulations to all the dancers,
very well deserved wins!”
Judging the event were Liverpool’s
Danielle Wheeler from the musical
‘42nd Street’; Deana
Difrancescantonio,
dance
professional and teacher; Natalie
Dignam, currently touring with
‘Grease The Musical’ and Marcquelle
Jermaine Ward, a street dancer with
many championship titles and TV
credits to his name.
