Here’s the logline: Glo Hampton, who wants to take her students and prestigious dance school Studio Bleu to the next level – competing nationally every week. But the road to glory won’t be an easy one. Coach Glo must juggle her tiny but mighty dancers, their scheming moms, and ensuing meltdowns, all while ruling with a tender but tough iron fist. Will Glo and her dance team persevere amidst the dramatics?
For those who have managed to forget, the original Dance Moms on Lifetime focused on the training and careers of children in dance and show business under the show’s host and instructor Abby Lee Miller as well as the relationships between Miller, the dancers, and their often bickering mothers. And because viewers apparently missed them, the cast of Dance Moms recently staged a reunion on Lifetime in May.
Dance Moms: A New Era is produced by the A+E Factual Studios group for Hulu and Lifetime. The project is helmed by original series Executive Producer Bryan Stinson, alongside Sharon Scott, Steve Ascher, Kristy Sabat, Allie Breslin and Natalie Feldman who serve as executive producers from A+E Factual Studios.
Kimberly Chessler and Brie Miranda Bryant executive produce from Lifetime.
