Feel the Beat

Descendants actress Sofia Carson stars in this dance comedy as April, an aspiring performer who – after she fails to land a role on Broadway – returns home to Wisconsin, where she’s tasked with training a group of young outcasts for a major dance competition. Though she’s reluctant to do so, that changes when she learns that the competition gives her an opportunity to perform in front of Broadway producer Welly Wong, who could potentially save her dance career.

Work It

Sabrina Carpenter, Liza Koshy, and Jordan Fisher star in this feel-good comedy about high school senior Quinn, who dreams of getting into Duke University, the college her late father attended. During an interview with the admissions rep, Quinn lies and says she’s part of her school’s famous dance team, and the rep responds that a win in an upcoming dance competition could be her key to getting into the school. The only problem: Quinn is totally uncoordinated, and she has to recruit a ragtag group of dancers to help her dance to victory.
