This week it was Broadway Week on “Dancing With The Stars.” This meant that the dancers got to perform to Broadway songs that we love and know. This always meant that it was time to pick up the music and the dance steps.

While Broadway music was enjoyable to some, others may have enjoyed the group dance more. Yes, this was the first week that the dancers had to perform two dancers. They had to perform their assigned solo performance, with their partner and they had to perform a group dance.
