Dance Crew Lines Up In Gym And Crowd Goes Wild As Lights Go Out In The Middle Of The Song

Sep 14, 2020

To stand out from the crowd in the highly competitive high school athletics, students have to work incredibly hard to add a unique element. Every team needs to add something interesting and unique, regardless of what sport they are playing. Recently, a high school drill team did exactly that. The Dodge City High School Drill team not only shocked the crowd, but they delighted them as well during the championship finals for a basketball game in 2019.

The halftime performance began with the Leonard Cohen classic, “Hallelujah” while the team moved to the center of the court. The song was performed by the students as two girls joined in on the singing. While they sang the song, the others on the floor began to dance slowly, with rhythm and elegance. However, it seemed like a typical performance. The girls quickly revealed something unique as people began to notice the differences in the girls’ costumes. The white dresses revealed wing-like capes that added a sense of the mystical to the dance. They also wore crowns that lit up during the performance. The audience quickly discovered why.

The lights suddenly went out and the crowd was hushed. Soon they realized they were in for a particular treat during the halftime performance. The music transitioned from the soft ballad to a remixed version. Suddenly, the costumes began to light up, creating a light show alongside the dance. The dance became haunting and majestic as the costumes lit up. 

The performance was no longer just a run of the mill song and dance. Instead, it became a performance that was shared thousands of times across social media. Everyone was leaving comments about how beautiful and stunning the performance was. The lighting made the dancers look like otherworldly angels, with wings that lit up and halos that glowed. The audience cheered and whistled as the angels began to dance with utter joy and energy.

They clapped along to the rhythm while the dancers proved that a high school game could be a full-fledged performance. Many reported feeling chills as they watched them perform. The team certainly discovered a way to stand out from other drill teams and put on one of the most memorable high school halftime shows in decades.
