About the Show
The Greatest Dancer is the dance talent show where dancers of any age and style compete to win £50,000 and a chance to perform on Strictly Come Dancing.
Hoping to discover The Greatest Dancer are superstar Dance Captains: Multi-platinum-selling singer Cheryl, Broadway and Glee star Matthew Morrison and Strictly Come Dancing professional Oti Mabuse. They are now joined by a brand new Dance Captain - pop star, dancer and choreographer to stars such as Beyonce and Taylor Swift, Todrick Hall.
The series is hosted by singer, rapper and former Strictly Champion Alesha Dixon and Jordan Banjo, member of multi-award winning dance troupe Diversity.
The Auditions
At the auditions the audience hold the power, and only they will decide if the mirror opens for the acts or not. The dancers need to impress at least 75% of the audience for the mirror to open and progress in the competition.
And new for this series, at the end of each Audition episode, one Dance Captain will get to pick one act and take them straight through to the live shows.
The Callbacks
Callbacks are where the Dance Captains must complete their teams to take to the Live Challenge Shows. Each Dance Captain has already chosen one act for their Final three across the Auditions, and at Callbacks they must each pick two more acts.
The Callbacks feature dancers who had the mirror open for them by the audience.
Live Challenge Shows
Our Final 12 perform live for the first time in the Challenge shows. Every week each act is given a completely different challenge that they must incorporate into their performance.
Get ready to see talent from across the world of dance as they give the performances of their lives in the hope of opening the mirror.
Expect dramatic performances, outstanding talent and jaw dropping surprises. But who will become The Greatest Dancer?
