BACKGROUND:

MD Show group are a dance group based in Liverpool. They formed 18 months ago and want to promote a positive message. Group leader Miguel set up his company 8 years ago because he felt that there was nothing to do in Liverpool. After he finished his dance course he felt that he needed to set an example for the local kids. The dance school gave many of the kids direction and Miguel says that it improved their attitudes and grades. Most of the kids are from broken homes and have devised different routines to tackle different issues.

The kids decide which issues they want to tackle and create dances that highlight the issue. MD Show group are influenced by personal issues including gun crime, bullying and racism. MD Show group entered the show because they want to show other people from a disadvantaged background that they turn their lives around and achieve something. The show represents a milestone for many of the kids as many of them have never left Liverpool before.
