Put on your dancing shoes, set your feet a-tapping and don't be caught napping! M-Net Movies All-Stars DStv channel 111 is turning up the volume this November with an amazing Dance Fest featuring all your favourites from this immensely popular film genre. The M-Net Movies All-Stars Dance Fest hits the small screen on Friday 2 November 2 at 2pm, and thereafter goes out every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It ends on Friday November 30. Visit mnet.tv/dancefest for the full schedule.
There are scores of dancing styles out there, and Hollywood is always trying to stay abreast with the latest craze. From the glamorous show dancing, swing and tap of La La Land to the gritty stomp and hip hop in Stomp the Yard, Honey and Step Up, the M-Net Movies All-Stars Dance Fest will show you the best stories, masterfully choreographed and brilliantly told. So, forget the notion that dance films are all style and no substance. The characters are totally believable, and the movies have plenty of heart.
