Explosive start to Charles Chocolates Dancin’ Dynamites Competition


Season 11 of the Charles Chocolates Dancin’ Dynamites Competition is up and revving, following the high-energy launch at Limelight in Half Way Tree; and of auditions which kicked into high gear on Saturday January 11 in May Pen, Clarendon.
The launch revved up to a smashing start with the St. Judes Marching Band drumming up beats and incorporating dance into a thrilling show for the audience. To top that, there were high-energy dance routines, and a high performance from the effervescent Charles Chocolates Brand Ambassadors, Voicemail who delivered some of their biggest hits, with dance choreography by Supreme Blazers. Bugle, Nesbeth, and gospel singer Jai Kingston also delivered well, getting the audience in a frenzy.

The auditions will set the pace for another exciting year, running through the month of January across the island. Expectations are high, as the 10th season saw record viewership and votes, but if the launch is anything to go by, there will be nothing but high-energy sets, innovative dance moves, and delicious Charles Chocolates and Devon Biscuits along the way.
The Charles Chocolates Dancin’ Dynamites Competition started in 2006, and spans a period of three and a half months. Twelve dance groups are selected from an island-wide search and weekly dancers present their 2 minute routine on television.
