Manila, mark your calendars because something spectacular is about to sweep you off your feet! From July 10 to 15, 2025, the global dance sensation Burn the Floor: Ballroom Reinvented will light up The Theatre at Solaire with a show that’s anything but your typical ballroom affair. If you think waltzing is all about stiff collars and polite claps, think again—this is ballroom with a fiery twist, and it’s coming straight to our shores.

For 27 years, Burn the Floor has been rewriting the rules of dance, blending the elegance of ballroom with a rock-and-roll edge that’s left audiences buzzing from Broadway to London’s West End. Now, it’s Manila’s turn to experience the passion, the rhythm, and the sheer talent of what’s been dubbed “the toughest dance company in the world.” Ready to feel the heat?

A Dance Revolution Like No Other

Picture this: the graceful sway of a Slow Waltz meets the sultry strut of a Samba, all dialed up to eleven with heart-pounding energy. Burn the Floor takes classic ballroom dances—think Tango, Viennese Waltz, and Foxtrot—and infuses them with Latin flair like the Cha-Cha, Rumba, and Jive. The result? A performance that’s equal parts discipline and daring, tradition and rebellion.

Since its debut in 1999, this show has been on a mission to shake up the dance world. Founder and producer Harley Medcalf sums it up perfectly: “I wanted to create a showcase that fuses the traditions of ballroom dancing with the creativity and energy of a rock-and-roll production.” And trust us, they’ve nailed it. With a mantra of “No fear, no boundaries,” Burn the Floor pushes every limit, turning a night at the theater into an all-out celebration of movement and music.

Why Manila’s Going to Love This

If there’s one thing Filipinos know, it’s how to appreciate a good performance. From our love for videoke showdowns to cheering on local dance crews, we’ve got rhythm in our DNA. That’s why Harley Medcalf is so excited to bring the show here. “Manila is a city with a deep love for performance and dance,” he says. “We can’t wait for Filipinos to experience our world-class dancers’ energy, passion, and brilliance.”

And who can blame him? This isn’t just a dance show—it’s a full-on spectacle. Imagine dazzling costumes, jaw-dropping choreography, and a soundtrack that’ll have you tapping your feet long after the curtain drops. Whether you’re a die-hard dance fan or just looking for a fun night out, Burn the Floor promises to deliver something unforgettable.

A Global Legacy Lands in the Philippines

This isn’t Burn the Floor’s first rodeo. The company has toured over 180 cities across 30 countries, wowing crowds in places like Japan, Australia, South Africa, and the USA. They’ve shared stages with legends, brought down houses on Broadway, and earned a rep for being unstoppable. Now, after years of globe-trotting, they’re ready to make Manila their next big stage.

Running for six nights only from July 10 to 15, 2025, this is a limited chance to catch a world-class act right in Parañaque. The Theatre at Solaire, known for hosting top-tier shows, is the perfect spot to experience this explosive production brought to us by GMG Productions and Dance Partner Productions.

What to Expect When You Go

o, what’s in store when you snag a seat? Expect a rollercoaster of emotions—sensual slow dances that tug at your heartstrings, fiery Paso Dobles that get your pulse racing, and playful Jives that’ll leave you grinning ear to ear. The dancers aren’t just performers; they’re storytellers, pouring every ounce of commitment into moves that feel raw and electric.

The production value is off the charts, too. Think cutting-edge tech paired with choreography that’s been polished to perfection over decades. It’s the kind of show that makes you want to jump up and dance along (though maybe save that for your living room after-party!).
