hey’ve got fire in their feet and a buzz in their blood.
They’re dancers. Or at least, that’s what they want
to become. They’ve dreamt about it since they were kids.
They’re hooked on defying gravity and flying through the
air. And now they’re in Dance Academy. Their dreams are
about to come true, right?
Raised on a sheep farm in rural Australia, Tara Webster, 15,
is a perfectly normal teen. Except for the fact that she, along
with other teens from various parts of the coun-
try, has made it into the National Academy of
Dance in Sydney — the best dance school
in Australia. And the toughest. Tara is the
heroine of this dynamic series about teens
who push themselves to their limits. Produced by
Joanna Werner, it’s brimming with cool music, dance,
and all the emotions that tug at every teen.

It’s through Tara’s eyes that we enter the world of the

National Academy of Dance. This is the year she leaves home
and falls in love for the first time. It’s a year of friendships
and jealousies, triumphs and disappointments. Does she have
what it takes to be a dancer? Can she cope with the sacrifices
she’s required to make? Fortunately, Tara’s not alone on her
journey. There’s Kat, a perfect complement to Tara’s wide-
7
eyed innocence; Kat’s brother Ethan, the Academy’s golden
boy; brooding rebel Christian, an adrenaline junkie, and nerdy,
lovable Sammy. And since every hive has a queen, the role of
the girl-everybody-loves-to-hate falls to Abigail Armstrong, the
best in the class.
“Dance Academy” – an exhilarating, up-
lifting new drama series for tweens and
0
teens, as well as for anyone who’s ever
had a dream!
