Thunderbolt Solo Category

A dancer from any Age Group* or Performance Division that enters three (3) or more solos can choose to enter the Thunderbolt Solo category. Dancers that enter will perform one of their solo's in Thunderbolt Solo Competition, which will be held prior to the Final Awards.

The Thunderbolt Solo and the two (2) solo's of choice will be selected before the competition and combine for your Thunderbolt score, an average of all three (3) performances.

Winner

The winner of the Thunderbolt Solo will be the dancer with the highest average mark for all three solos. The Thunderbolt Solo performance can not be performed in the regular category.

Award

"Ohhh yes we did!" The winner of the Thunderbolt Solo will receive a blue box with a white ribbon. Inside the winner will find a Tiffany & Co. Thunderstruck pendant. The winner will have the option to take $100 cash and a unique Thunderbolt Solo Winner Collectors' Hoodie if they do not want the Tiffany's Pendant.

Format

After a dancer performs their Thunderbolt Solo, they will asked to remain on the stage and live comments will be made by the judging panel. Thunderbolt Soloists still get audio criques and adjudication awards like regular routines. Instead of Overalls, the Thunderbolt winner is announced during the Eye of the Storm awards.

Special Notes

The Thunderbolt Solo is subject to the same policy for other overalls. The Tiffany's Pendant or alternative cash prize is awarded when there are 10 or more entries. If there are 20 entries a runner up cash prize will also be awarded. The Thunderbolt Solo Collectors' Hoodie will always be awarded.

* Adults, Teachers, and Professional Dancers are welcome to participate in the Thunderbolt Solo, will receive critiques and live comments from the Judging panel but are NOT eligible to win the Thunderbolt Title.
