Cheryl Burke Talks On Her New Dance Show, Wants To Take It To Vegas And Broadway Next
Former Dancing With The Stars pro, Cheryl Burke, has a new dance show premiering in Japan called “Love On The Floor. You can read all about it at US Weekly. It stars Charlie White, Meryl Davis, Kristi Yamaguchi, and Daisuke Takahashi. Cheryl also talks on Dancing With The Stars and why she left which you can read about in the take below as well as how she’d like to bring “Love On The Floor” to Las Vegas and Broadway next. I so hope she can.
“Another reason why I felt like my time was up was because I wanted to achieve my goal as a performer. … I’m 32 years old. I felt like, ‘How about me? What can I do to make myself as a performer think outside the box and grow and motivate and inspire myself before my hips stop working?’” she continues.
“Now I’m dancing with kids — and now I know how the celebrities feel!” Burke says. “Not only am I directing, I’m creating, I’m editing the music, I’m coordinating everyone’s schedule — I feel like I’m running a start-up company!”
The dancer says performing with younger artists has also inspired her again after the lack of time to do anything new led her to think she wasn’t a great dancer. But she isn’t blaming her time on DWTS for creating the self-doubt.
“I wouldn’t be here if I hadn’t done DWTS, and I love DWTS,” She says. “But everything is meant to be. DWTS has given me a platform to be able to do something like this.”
And after her Tokyo residency? Burke says she’d “love to take the show and do a residency in Vegas! I could see it on Broadway as well.”
Sounds great, I hope she has huge success with it!
I have seen rehearsal footage of this show and it looks very, very interesting. People who have seen it last night say it is a very high quality show and I hope she does bring it in the States so I can see it myself. Good luck to her.
I’ve always enjoyed watching Daisuke Takahashi skate. It’s cool that he’s in the show with Cheryl.
Good for her. I wish her nothing but success!
This looks amazing hope to see it someday!
I also wish Cheryl nothing but success in her knew endeavor.
Sounds cool! it seems like a good show for Broadway for sure. Maybe it can get the drew lachey on board too.
Looks amazing. I really like Cheryl’s vision for the show and she picked such cool music. Hope she’s able to bring it to the States.
