Hiya i'm a master dancer on ahazi and i got the new dance theatrical dance that you get from doing the theatre auditions.
i was eager to show my sister the dance because shes a master dancer too and i wanted to show off
well she said it looked like the lyrical dance( you know when your not flourishing you look funny and not dancing or anything just kinda floating across the floor?) well she said it was doing that also. the flourishes r great but it takes away from the dance when you have to flourish to make it look like a dance. i wish when soe made something like a new dance they would make sure it worked before leting everyone know about it. well just wondering if everyone knows about this.

Congrats on finishing the Theater quests!
The broken dance is a known problem. We knew about it before it even left TC, but it still went to live broken.
I guess the best thing to do is to /bug it in-game and have your sister etc also /bug it. The only way for the Devs to get up the energy to fix something is to make them realize they have an issue to deal with, and quite frankly, they probably get so few /bug reports about the broken dances that it's low on the priority list.
Another thing you can do is hang around the Dance boards and watch for bug threads & other things that might pique your interest.
In the meantime, you can always quest after Theatrical 2--it costs another several hundered k of experience, but it does add another dance to your mastery. (Unfortunately it's also broken, but hey, when they finally get fixed, you'll have 2 neat looking dances.
)

I believe you have to earn another 400k Dance xp for it, but yes there is another Theatrical.
I'm not sure if a certainamount of that xp has to come from Theatrical or not....
Here is whatK'vera wrote about earning the second dance on SWGEntertainer.com:
"Dancers will need to practice Theatrical quite a bit to become proficient. At some point they will be told they are proficient in the dance and should seek out someone to teach advanced moves. The choreography teacher in the back of the theater will thean teach Theatrical2."

You'll need another 400k exp with 100k of that being earned by dancing theatrical -- you'll get a pop up box when you've done the 100k...

And then you have to go see the Choreographer in the theater. She's the one who can "train" you on T2.

And this, ladies and gents, is what is so apparently wrong with this game and with this profession!
They knew the dance was broken in TC, and the sent it live anyway. Not only are all the things that have been broken for so long frustrating to me, but the fact that they knowingly release more broken/buggy crap for us to add to the list of things that need to be fixed is ridiculous to me!
What would your boss do or say if your work product was consistantly this crappy and it was being marketed to an audience this size? I'm pretty sure that I wouldn't have a job long!!! Problem here is that we have all be programed for so long that "there isn't anything that we can do about it" that we all just sit back and complain amongst ourselves about the quality of the online games, but we rarely rise up and do anything about it.
I for one, am considering taking my business elsewhere - which is what I would do if I got this kind of service from my internet service provider, or from my satellite provider....I'm going to take my measly $16.00 a month and give it to someone who gives a crap about my business! I may lose my cantina, I may lose my house, I may lose everything that I have worked so hard to get, but that is far less important than proving my point at this juncture.
I am tired of not being heard, I am tired of not being satisfied with the overall way that this game is "progressing" (if you'd like to call it that), I am tired of posting and posting and posting with all of you...and it lands on deaf ears. I am tired of being provided a substandard, broken product all the time and then spending months begging to have it fixed. And when it is fixed we all cheer like beaten wives at this amazing progress, and its presented to us as something new and great, when really it should have never been released if it doesn't work!!!!! They throw us a bone, hoping to keep us for another pay cycle.....and then what they've so lovingly presented as the next step in our progression doesn't even work!!! What is the point of working your butt off to complete the task when what you get in the end is just something else that we'll have to complain about?
