World of Dance on Tour
A celebration of NBC's hit reality competition World of Dance, the tour of the same name commemorates each season with a showcase of contestants from that year. Appearing onstage alongside heavy hitters in dance-competition circles, the high-energy show gives World of Dance contestants the opportunity to show audiences why they were selected to compete on network TV. The routines, style and choreography will leave you breathless — and excited about the next season's raw talent.
World of Dance Background
Since 2008, the World of Dance enterprise has been the world's premier source for dance entertainment, holding competitions around the globe that showcase talented dancers of all ages. In 2017, NBC premiered the Jennifer Lopez–hosted reality competition World of Dance, which pits juniors (dancers under 17), soloists and teams against each other as they vie for a million-dollar prize. A three-person judge/mentor panel, on which Lopez is joined by R&B singer Ne-Yo and Dancing With the Stars hoofer Derek Hough, scores each competitor as they move in sync to modern hits and classic floor-fillers. Alums of the show have competed on other televised dance competitions like So You Think You Can Dance? and America's Best Dance Crew, while first-season winners Larry and Laurent Nicolas Bourgeois, collectively known as Les Twins, brought their new style hip-hop moves to the stage alongside Beyoncé before and after competing on the show. Other dancers made appearances on Lopez's 2019 It's My Party tour, surprising audiences with their sleek choreography.
World of Dance embarked on its first tour in 2017, after the show's first season lit up the ratings books. Since then, stars from each season have hit the road after the winners' crowning, performing intricate, high-energy routines that dazzle audiences with their innovation and unparalleled talent. World of Dance looks spectacular on television, but live, it truly comes into its own.
I always love seeing shows at the Civic Arts and World of Dance was fabulous! We met the dancers before the show and they were great on stage.
There's a lot of good dance in the show, but lighting and sound effects ruined it instead of complementing it. By intermission we had headaches and were nauseous to the point where we both had to leave.
World of Dance is one of the best shows I have ever seen. It was full of energy, and has some of the most amazing young talent around. The lighting and graphics were so cool. It was a show that kept you on the edge of your seat, and when over, you just wanted to see more and more. Eva Igo is such a star, but the other dancers could easily be stars as well.
Amazing show! Loved every minute. Hoping for a show and tour next season.
Very entertaining and a must see show. I took my 9 year old grand-dtr and her eyes never left the stage.
We watched this show over the summer and loved it, so when I saw the tour I knew I had to take my 2 daughters. They loved it and were so impressed that I had 2nd row seats! It was a fun family event and was very cool to see these up and coming dancers live. I would recommend!
The WOD tour should have a larger crew of dancers and should include the winners of the show and the key dancers from the season. The dancers that did perform were good, but the live show was not anywhere near as amazing as the tv show was. Disappointed.
The dancers kept us mesmerized the whole time! The show was Amazing, Engaging, and Fun!!! This is an extraordinary talented group of dancers and we loved the variety!
We paid a lot of extra for VIP tickets. We expected as always that after the show we’ll have meet and greet with performers. On the day of event we got an email informing us that meet and greet will happen before the show and check in for it will begin two hours before the show. We arrived an hour before the show figuring that it should be enough time for us to spend with performers. It was a big surprise to learn that the event is over. It is disappointing why these events had to be organized in such confusing way, without providing necessary information, and what minimum was provided was sent at the last minute.
WOD Tour was Awesome. The dancers were amazing to watch up close. I was not an avid show watcher, but I still really enjoyed the tour. I would recommend this event for anyone who is a fan of dancing.
My daughter and I loved the tv show and enjoyed the live tour. It's amazing to see these incredible dancers on tv but seeing them live, is just incredible. They are all so talented. Loved seeing Eva and Diana, but also enjoyed Elecktro Botz, Luka and Jenalyn (how he spins her on her head without hands still amazes me), Super Cr3W and DNA. They basically performed their dances from the show, but also did a couple of new group numbers. The first half of the show was 45 minutes, the second half was 30 minutes. Would have liked it to be a bit longer for the price of the tickets and to see some new material. Maybe next year they will advertise the tour more (the crowd was pretty light) and have the winner and more of the acts on tour.
Outstanding show. High energy and very entertaining
I thought the meet in great was awful way too expensive for what they gave us or the lack of.
Wasn't bad, but when The Les Twins win and aren't on tour or even, Keone & Mari kind of took away from the show though will say others did great job
The routines were amazing! The whole show was entertaining and a lot of fun!
