The studio teaches many kinds of dances (pre-K, Ballet, Modern, Hip-hop, Tap, etc) and has many students. To house the showcase, they used Rose State College Hudiburg Chevrolet Center, a 1400-seat theater hall.
Although I did not check out the Balcony and upper-level, the lower level seats were almost full, meaning there were at least five hundred to several hundred people as audiences in the theater. It was a good size audience for a goal of a project.

This project started out with six dancers for three couple formation choreography for this occasion.
It was not trouble-free over the months.
One dancer (my original partner) dropped out due to an injury. But another dancer filled in, and she did great job to catch up.
Ten days before the showcase, another (one of the choreographers) backed out due to family emergency. Since Tango lead is hard to find around here (much less to find a lead who can fill in a choreographed dance from scratch in a week), we modified the choreo from three couple formation to two couple dance.
But overall, judging from a preliminary video, the timing was matching well enough, and the dance was done fine. These little insider troubles were not showing, I'd say. That is what counts, too.
There will be another occasion to dance this choreo on 6/17. It will complete this project.
