Future Talent Sophie Rath

At the European Championships in Klagenfurt they won 17 European Championship Titles and 10 Runner-Ups. In addition our student Sophie Rath was declared the Future Talent 2009!

KrisTina Decker:
“I am proud to work with these kids and youth. The fun they radiate during dancing, not only infects me but the whole audience and is a proof for me, that the hard work and intensive training was worth while! Thanks to all my protégés … and don’t forget: BCV rocks!”

Last but not least, we would like to thank all our helpers, supporters and parents (organisation, costumes, fans, …). Without you the championships would not have been the same. A great thanks also to our choreographers: KrisTina Decker, Sharon Booth, Maria Gabler and Wei-Ken Liao.

Don’t Dream It.

Austrian Open 2009

Sensational Result at the Austrian Open 2009 in Matrei

From March 26-29, 2009 the ASDU Austrian Open 2009 in Musical and Showdance in Matrei/Osttirol took place. Our Competition Team returned with the best result in the history of the Broadway Connection!

In a highly competative competition, our dances won 19 National Championship Titles, 10 Runner-Ups and 2 Third Places.

The Tap solo of Corvin Frantsits with 107 points only slightly missed the diamond recognition. His dance had also the highest points amongst the classical categories, only few production numbers received more points.

We thank all the dancers for their commitment in the preparation phase and during the competition. Our choreographers earn thanks for their beautiful dances. Thanks goes also to those parents that actively help that the competitions run so smoothly.

Don’t Dream It.
Be It.

Rock Camp

ROCK CAMP

Poster: ROCK CAMP

Last summer the Broadway Connection – Vienna’s First Show School celebrated a terrific success with the musical Hogwarts – The Next Generation. We were excited to perform our production in front of 1,500 visitors in a sold out house! This year the Broadway Company presents their new musical.

ROCK CAMP – Be Different. Be A Star!“, an adapted stage version of last summer’s Disney Musical Movie hit Camp Rock with the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato.

The shy Mitchie has only one desire: she would like to sing and compose and to spend her summer in the legendary ROCK CAMP. There she meets the bitchy Tess who tries to make her life a hell, the sympatic producer Caitlyn and the arrogant heart-throb Shane Gray who at the end does turn out not so bad. It will be a summer to remember …

Sung, danced and performed by talented kids and teenagers between 8 and 21 years, who studied since half a year with experienced musical and stage professionals. Together with their famous colleagues they created a musical with great numbers, which is presented in the theater.

Like the characters in our show, our young performers have the dream to be on stage to sing and dance. Join our singers and dancers for the summer of their life!

Don’t Dream It.
Be It.
