This week on Dancing With the Stars, it’s Broadway week! Each song is from a specific Broadway show.

Rob and Cheryl were up first with a Cha Cha to a song from Jersey Boy. Len said it was clean and precise but didn’t think there was any rhythm. Bruno said it lacked power. Carrie Ann said it wasn’t as great as last week. 

Score: 8+7+7=22.

Nancy and Tristan performed next with a Fox Trot from Spamalot. Bruno said it was well done. Carrie Ann said she upped the ante on her content and nailed it. Len thought there was much more personality but didn’t think they stayed in hold enough. 

Score: 9+7+8=24.

David and Kym danced the Quick Step to a song from Grease. Carrie Ann said he lived up to his expectations but thought they were out of sync. Len thought there was high energy but said it was a bit rough around the edges. Bruno said he was like a risky teenager on Spring Break. 

Score: 8+7+8=23.

Ricki and Derek also danced the Quick Step to a song from Guys and Dolls. Len absolutely loved it. Bruno said the interpretation of music was beyond belief. Carrie Ann thought it was sharp and sophisticated. 

Score: 10+9+10=29.

Chaz and Lacey danced a Tango to Phantom of the Opera. Bruno said it was like watching a cute little penguin try to be a bird of prey. Carrie Ann said it was the most aggressive she has seen him but added that he needs to up the content. Len appreciated that he got through the routine and tried his hardest. 

Score: 7+6+6=19.

Hope and Maks danced the Rumba to a song from Rent. Carrie Ann said she sees the effort she is putting in and saw her trust her natural sexiness for the first time. Len was at a loss and said it was her worst dance of the entire season. Bruno thought it was a difficult song and noticed she tried to make it work. 

Score:7+6+7=20.

J.R. and Karina danced the Quick Step to a song from Chicago. Len said he keeps on keepin’ on. Bruno said he made this show a hit. Carrie Ann gave him an imaginary Tony Award. 

Score: 10+9+10=29.

For the grand finale, all of the couples got together for the popular group routine. It was a medley of “Big Spender” from sweet Chariot and “Money, Money” from Cabaret.
