Get ready to head to the Merry Old Land of Oz. Dancing With the Stars is kicking off its first-ever Wicked Night, celebrating all things Wicked ahead of the release of the highly anticipated film, Wicked: For Good.
The night will feature a wickedly enchanting medley performance of “No One Mourns the Wicked,” “Defying Gravity,” “For Good,” “Thank Goodness,” “Dancing Through Life,” and “What Is This Feeling?” from Wicked and Wicked: For Good. Then, the couples will perform a variety of dance styles inspired by the movie’s soundtrack, including the Argentine Tango, Contemporary, Foxtrot, Jazz, Rumba and Quickstep.
Last week’s Dedication Night delivered emotional performances as each of the remaining 10 couples took the dance floor to honor a loved one who has made a lasting impact on their lives. No one was eliminated after the heartfelt routines, which means a double elimination is highly likely at the end of Wicked Night.
Dedication Night also saw a new couple rise to the top of the leaderboard. Dylan and Daniella earned the highest scores of the evening, receiving nines across the board from all four judges for their soulful Contemporary to “Rewrite the Stars” by his brother Zac Efron and Zendaya, dedicated to Dylan’s little sister, Olivia. Meanwhile, Andy and Emma received the lowest scores of the night for another week after earning sixes.
Don’t forget to vote for your favorites during the show to help them advance to next week’s Halloween Night! Keep scrolling to see the DWTS Wicked Night songs and dances.
