“We Are The Champions” returns to the Westchester Broadway Theatre with both a matinee and evening program Monday, Dec. 3, showcasing current World and American ballroom dance champions.

All forms of DanceSport will be in the spotlight with presentations alternating from International Latin and Standard style to American rhythm and smooth. Also, Cabaret and Theatre Arts.

Heading the 6-couples “We Are The Champions” cast is Italian superstar, Erminio Stefano, with his Latvian partner, Liene Apale. The couple will be returning from England where they represented the United States in “The Night of One Hundred Stars in London and the World Championship in Blackpool. They have won the prestigious Ohio Star Ball and earlier this year won the heralded Millenium, Heritage and Capital DanceSport classics in this Country. Also in the star-studded cast are Argentine Tango stars Francisco Forquera and Natalia Hills who were the principal dancers in the hit Broadway show Forever Tango in New York, London and Paris. They also headed the cast of Tango Passion on its tour of the Far East. Their career was highlighted by being specially invited to perform in honor of Princess Diana Spenser at the British Embassy in Argentina.

Gherman Mustuc and Iveta Lukosiute, the reigning U.S. National Professional International style 10-dance champions, and silver medalists at the world championship held in Germany, also return with the show. They, too, took 4th place for this year’s World Classical Showdance title held in Holland. They began 2007 by sweeping both the Show Dance and International Ballroom titles in Washington D.C.’s Yuletide Ball and San Francisco’s Grand Ball.

Dmitri and Svetlana Ostashkin were twice winners of the European Latin Championship and have won numerous major American competitions. The Ostashkins, too, are Show Dance champions and should enthrall the audience with their renown “Marilyn Monroe” and Latin theater show presentations.

Also in the star-studded cast will be Steven Dougherty and Eulia Baranovsky, American-style smooth winners of the California Open and Boston’s Yankee Classic. Dougherty and Baranovsky were Grand Finalists in both the United States Ballroom Championship and Ohio Star Ball and were featured in the TV special “American Ballroom Challenge” on PBS and ESPN. They are guest teachers and performers for the Juilliard School.

New to the cast are Evgeny Dyachenko and Inna Ivanenko, silver medalists in the World Professional American rhythm championship as seen on PBS. Inna, with her exotic movements and slinky body action, and the energetic Evgeny, toured America this past summer with the “Dancing With The Stars” road show. Dance Beat called them “refreshing and fun to watch”.
