Among the variety of dance in this show is a number dedicated to late musician, Prince. This tribute is in the form of a sequence that includes three different songs, “Baby I’m A Star,” “Let’s Go Crazy,” and “The Beautiful Ones.”

“Prince left such a profound mark on the world, so we had to use this as an opportunity to honor him. Plus, you can’t help but dance to his music anyway!” said Director of “SYN*ER*GY” and choreographer of this sequence, Marie Hoffman.
