The Harlow Star said of their last show that Makin' Steps "25" was a "Stunning show and is proof that Harlow's got talent". Louise Sassoon then went on to say- FIRSTLY – and because I felt like shouting it from the middle of the car park once I got out of the Sportcentre – this truly was a stunning show bursting with energy and vibrancy. It was a joy to watch and opened my eyes to the wealth of talent a fantastic organisation like Makin' Steps has to offer Harlow. The tone was set from the outset with a medley of Michael Jackson numbers sung by the Makin' Steps Backing Vocalists and performed by the band. The troupe wowed the audience with their faultless routines which showed off their extensive skill base thanks to inspired choreography. The staging – on two levels with the band and singers to the left – allowed the dancers to make full use of the ample space which in turn gave the audience better views of the troupe hitting each beat like a well-oiled machine. A simple gigantic '25' prop and some clever lighting gave the show the extra wow factor and created a feeling more in keeping with a professional performance. The gusto of the dancing, helped by some fantastic singing at times from the likes of David Rudin, Rachel Alcock, Mark Cameron and Amber Libera (to mention just a few), as well as the performance band, gave the show power and energy which hit the audience like a sledgehammer. Throughout the show all ages of dancers were given the opportunity to strut their stuff. Stand-out performances were Bombay for its change of pace coming amid some high-octane pop performances and its professional-looking costumes as well as well-balanced choreography. The lighting at the beginning of the performance projected the silhouettes of the dancers onto the black sides of the Sportcentre walls, making the performance a real assault on the senses.
The final Stevie Wonder medley was also fantastic to watch, as was Dance Wiv Me and Back in the Day. The younger members showed they were every inch stars for the future, never once forgetting a step and showing they have exceptional timing while the older members showed they are fantastically talented with some of them standing out as real pros. Well done to all involved.
