Auditions for the 10th season of the competitive dance series So You Think You Can Dance will kick off on January 18, 2013 in Austin, Texas. Fox today confirmed it’s bringing the 28-time Emmy-nominated series back for its 10th season, along with announcing the list of audition cities.
Mike Darnell, President of Alternative Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company made the announcement of the renewal, stating: “I couldn’t be more proud of the amazing work that Nigel and the entire So You Think You Can Dance team has done over the past nine seasons. This show is truly one of the most compelling series on television and I can’t wait to bring it back for Season 10.”
Details on Season #10: In Season 10, producers will travel across the country in search of dancers who represent the best America has to offer. Those who shine during auditions will be given a ticket to Las Vegas for call-backs, where they work with top choreographers to learn and then be judged on multiple styles of dance. The best of the best will then move on to the live competition shows this summer.
