THE SECOND WAVE OF FIVE KIDS TASKS THEIR DANCE PARTNERS WITH LEARNING THREE NEW MOVES TO INCORPORATE INTO THEIR PERFORMANCES, ON PART TWO OF A TWO-PART “COME DANCE WITH ME,” FRIDAY, MAY 6

Bust a Groove Night: Part 2” – The second wave of five kids tasks their dance partners with learning three new moves that they must pull off during their performances. The five remaining teams perform dance routines to “Level Up” (Ciara), “Cheap Thrills” (Sia) and “Pump Up the Jam” (Technotronic), on part two of a two-part episode of the CBS Original series COME DANCE WITH ME, Friday, May 6 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+*.

COME DANCE WITH ME features exceptionally talented young dancers from across the country who invite one untrained family member who has supported their dance dreams to be their partner, for a chance to strut their stuff for a grand prize. Throughout the season, the teams will learn different dance routines, from hip hop and ballroom to contemporary and theatrical, among others, and will tackle a fierce new performance each week in hopes of earning top scores from the judges and continuing in the competition. At the end of every episode, the two lowest-scoring teams will battle each other in a freestyle dance-off, as the judges determine which team will be eliminated and which will advance. The kid/parent teams perform to hit songs for some of the biggest names in dance, the series’ judges: Jenna Dewan, Dexter Mayfield and Tricia Miranda. GRAMMY® Award-winning songwriter Philip Lawrence hosts the series.
