ABOUT US
Dancers, lovers, and dreamers. The Sugar Dandies are famous for their flamboyant
and entertaining twist on ballroom dancing.
They appeared
on Britain's Got Talent - Series 6 where they received 'Yeses' from all four celebrity
judges at their audition and went on to be live semi-finalists. They have also appeared on Germany's Supertalent.
Perennial audience favourites, they have won five British, four Nordic, two European and two United States Championships, as well as having been three-time World Runners-Up in Same-Sex Show Dance. They have been medallists
at every major British, European, North American and World same-sex show
dance championship including the Gay Games, the World Out Games, the World Federation of Same-Sex Dancing, the EuroGames, the ESSDA European Championships, the NASSPDA US Championships, the Blackpool Same-Sex Dance Festival, the Dutch Open, the Norwegian Equality Open, and the Nordic Open Championships.
Additionally
they have the distinction of being one of the first British male couples to
compete on the mainstream (mixed-sex) competition circuit where they have
been overwhelmingly welcomed on the floor by fellow competitors and spectators
alike.
In 2009 the Sugar Dandies debuted their first full-length show at the
Edinburgh Fringe Festival to critical acclaim. In 2013
they created their hit dance event "The Sugar Dandies Tea Party" which has toured the UK.
They created and presented the Blackpool Same-Sex Dance Festival in the world famous Blackpool Winter Gardens and are co-founders of the UK Fun Competition an annual beginners competition to encourage the next generation of UK same-sex competitors. They are founding members of the UK Same-Sex Dance Council and the European Same-Sex Dance Association.
Their philosophy
of dance is that it should be fun and entertaining -- and never taken
too seriously.
Soren and Bradley met in 1996 at a gay chorus festival (GALA)
in Tampa Florida. In November 2006 they married in London.
They have danced together for over fifteen years, becoming one of England's most celebrated dance couples.
