SYNOPSIS: This coming of age Dance Film - in the spirit of Dirty Dancing and High School Musical - is about two young lovers from different worlds who find a common bond in their love of dance, and who ultimately work together to win a major dance competition. Jennifer, a High School Junior from Beverly Hills, falls in love with the handsome young Ken, who works at her father's Panama City Florida beach-front hotel. While preparing for the competition, they must overcome scheming dance partners, a meddling father and their own doubts in order for their love - and their chances at winning - to prevail. Featuring 2015 DANCING WITH THE STARS Champion WITNEY CARSON, alongside the impressive CHEHON WESPI-TSCHOPP (Grand Champion Winner of SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE) and a powerhouse cast of dancers and stars, DANCIN' IT'S ON is the most intense, energetic and enjoyable dance film since HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL or STEP-UP!
