So You Think You Can Dance Australia

Auditions: Melbourne and Adelaide (1x2)

Air date: Feb 04, 2008

The location may have changed but the rules stay the same – ninety seconds on the floor, with the outcome being a. that all-important ticket to Sydney as part of the Top 100 b. an invitation to dance Matt's group choreography (dancers call this 'corry') later in the day as a further test or c. a flat-out no. First cab off the rank is 19-year-old David, dancing despite his parent's wish he was studying, not stepping out on the floor! He had some white-hot power moves that saw him flying through the air with the greatest of ease - and straight through to the evening's corry. We hope David's parents will be thrilled to learn his efforts there scored him a ticket to Sydney!

Despite being partly blind and deaf, Drumstick impressed our trio with his fluid b-boy moves and after acing the corry, he scored himself a ticket to Sydney. Jason liked Rhys' big start and big end to the confident 25-year-old's routine (set to the very cool sounds of Aussie electro-disco kings, The Presets) and invited him to corry. This charismatic dancer had the skills to pay the bills, and made it to the Top 100. The likeable Sorono family was out in force at the auditions, with energetic siblings Demi, Lorraine and Carlo all competing, as well as Demi's girlfriend Nikki. The judges commended Lorraine on that fact that despite the fact she is deaf, she was able to dance on the beat, but it wasn't enough to take her through. A playful Carlo had more luck scoring a ticket, with Demi and Nikki both having to prove their worth at corry. The pint-sized Demi made the grade, but unfortunately a disappointed Nikki didn't get through. Day two started we
