Round 1 : SHOW OFF INQUIRY

Strut your stuff, show us what ya got….

Teams will strut the stage in the outfit of their choosing, matching or not. Then its time for the Q&A. A silly question requires an equally silly answer. Make it up, make it real, make it you. There are no wrong answers to the right question.

Once all teams have completed the strut and pose they will then come back on stage 1 team at a time to participate in a Q&A pageant style.

  • Before leaving the stage the teams will choose an envelop with the next round info including the prop they will use in round 2

Round 2 : SHIMMY SHAKE DOWN

We challenge you to a dance off….

Paired teams will go head to head in a dance battle. Using their own skills and style to the best of their ability and think on their feet in grand improv style.

*if a team puts a prop down the other can steal it, forcing their opponent to have to use the other prop

*teams can convince others to swap props with them

*only 1 team mate can dance at a time and they must tag their team mate to swap dancer

Round 3 : TEASER TWIST

Trust your team mate, make a plan, it’s time to give it all you’ve got….
