The Performer Gushes Over the Cast & Crew of the Tour
Derek Hough and his cast worked incredibly hard on the Symphony of Dance Encore tour. In June, he spoke with EntertainmentNow and had lovely things to say about his fellow performers.
โThe cast of dancers, they are literal superhuman beings that do things with their bodies that I didnโt even know were possible. Itโs incredible. Theyโre so talented, theyโre so hungry, they have so much energy. Itโs really special,โ Derek told editor Lauren Weigle.
This year’s tour is a special encore performance of the 2023 Symphony of Dance tour. The show was unfortunately cut short when Hayley Hough suffered a cranial hematoma during their stop in Washington, D.C. Thankfully, Hayley made a full recovery and went on to perform again. The Houghs made a documentary about her recovery, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival this year.
โWhatโs so special about this tour is that this is the tour thatโs from the documentary,โ Derek Hough told EntertainmentNow. He adjusted and tweaked parts of the show. But despite the upgrades, it’s still the same Symphony of Dance tour. Hough would love his fans to enjoy the new and improved version of the performance.
Fans can catch the new season of “Dancing With the Stars” this fall on ABC. “The Next Pro” begins on Monday, July 13 on the network.
Tickets to Derek Hough’s Symphony of Dance tour can be purchased through the official website.
