Razzle DazzleA hilarious send-up of the world of children's competitive dance, Razzle Dazzle follows the Jazzketeers, a troupe of tweenage hoofers vying for the title in Australia's most prestigious competition. HOWEVER it’s not all fluff and glam since the choreographer has a social conscience and has come up with an inspired piece about the liberation of women in Afghanistan.

Who said saving the World can’t be entertaining?

A spectacular comedy about changing the world step-by-step starring Kerry Armstrong, Ben Miller, Nadine Garner, Denise Roberts, Tara Morice, Jane Hall, Toni Lamond, Barry Crocker and Noeline Browne - Razzle Dazzle lifts the curtain on the world of children’s competitive dance.

The film follows the eager members of "Mr. Jonathon's Dance Academy" who, with their unique dance routines with social relevance, compete for Grand Finale success at Australia's most prestigious competition.

Amidst parental politics, petty rivalry, creative controversy and the hysterics of pushy stage mothers, the film takes you behind the glamour and the glitter to a world where, sometimes, winning is everything!

“A wonderful film, hilarious and touching.
You’ll dance out of the cinema.”

Ben Elton

"A well observed, brilliantly performed comedy."
Steve Coogan
