There's a New Dance T.V. Show In the Works
You guys know we prick up our ears at the first mention of any dance-related T.V. or movie. And wasn’t it just the other day that I was singing Jennifer Beals’ praises? So naturally, the dance gods heard me and put the two together: Deadline is reporting that Jennifer Beals and Kenny Ortega are teaming up to produce a dance T.V. show on Fox.

Apparently, The Edge is set in a cut-throat L.A. dance world where commercial performers are vying “to be the best.” Now, as much as we love them, dance shows and movies can sometimes be a little bit overwrought and we’re curious to see how this show portrays the competitive, but ultimately tight-knit and positive, L.A. dance scene.
We’ll keep you updated as we hear more!
