DWTS Season 33 Finalist STEPHEN NEDOROSCIK announced as co-host for the Dancing With The Stars: LIVE! 2025 Tour!
Jared Paul from Faculty Inc., the tour producer, shares his enthusiasm: “It is such an honor to produce the DWTS live tour once again and collaborate with sensational pro dancers, celebs, and the creative team to bring this show to life. Seeing fans of all ages pack venues and experience the DWTS excitement is incredible. We at Faculty promise a brand-new, next-level show for 2025, bringing the ballroom to life in fans’ hometowns.”
Adding her Emmy Award-winning touch, Mandy Moore (renowned for Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour, La La Land) returns to choreograph and direct this year’s tour. Moore expresses her excitement: “Directing this tour is a highlight of my year. With my long history with DWTS and these dancers, it feels like coming home. Collaborating with these world-class performers is an amazing opportunity to showcase their incredible talent and athleticism, highlighting what makes them true artists.”
2024 US Olympic bronze medalist Stephen Nedoroscik, affectionately known as ‘Pommel Horse Guy’, is set to enhance the tour experience as co-host.
Ryan O’Dowd, Executive Vice President of Entertainment & Music at BBC Studios Los Angeles Productions and BBC Studios Executive Producer for Dancing with the Stars, emphasizes the unique opportunity the tour offers: “Dancing with the Stars’ popularity is immense, with millions tuning in weekly, yet studio audience seats in Hollywood are limited. The DWTS Tour offers fans a rare chance to witness the TV magic live and in person. While the TV show is fantastic, seeing gravity-defying performances up close and personal, feeling the energy of these powerful dances, is a completely different and exhilarating phenomenon.”
“Dancing with the Stars: Live!” is a Faculty Productions creation in association with BBC Studios Los Angeles Productions, promoted by Live Nation and NS2.
