Floorplay@the Esplanade

When 20 pairs of competitive champion dancers come together on the same stage, the show is guaranteed to be a dance extragavanza. Every swivel, spin, spiral, sashay and strut is perfectly executed, every routine is dramatically delivered.

But what makes Floorplay so watchable for two energy-packed hours of ballroom dancing is the power of sex. The element of sexiness - raw, intimate, playful or adversarial - is set free to bond a man and woman as one entity.

This is what ballroom dancing has always been about.
