Dance Moms - Abby Lee Dance Company (ALDC)

Set in Pittsburgh, Dance Moms follows the Abby Lee Dance Company's Junior Elite Competition team of young girls aged 8 to 15-years-old as they travel week-to-week to various competitions in hopes of a National title. Much of the program depicts the doting mothers as fellow rivals not only of each other, but oftentimes as a group protecting the familiarity of the team. All of the performances shown on screen are choreographed by Miller, herself, with the exception of routines crafted by guest choreographers hired by Miller. CADC (Canton, OH) is a rivaling dance company.
