Creative Master’s Challenge

TO CELEBRATE OUR MONUMENTAL 25TH SEASON, WE INTRODUCE.

****NEW****

“CREATIVE MASTERS CHALLENGE”

That’s Entertainment seeks outstanding choreography across all ages, genres, levels, and sizes to compete in the CREATIVE MASTERS CHALLENGE. The Top Choreographer will be named the CREATIVE MASTER of the season, and Students/Studios will be honored with the Excellence in Execution award. 

We invite all working choreographers/teachers to present their top choreographed routines to compete for a chance to become the “CREATIVE MASTER.” 

Attendance at a That’s Entertainment Regional or Nationals is not required to participate. However, doing so has advantages, such as Golden Buzzers, All-Access Pass awards, and discounted fees. 

The challenge will take place during the week of each national event 

(June 20-22nd, Sandusky, OH & July 20-24th, Atlantic City, NJ)
