Sunderland's support for 'little pocket rockets' Lily and Joseph ahead of The Greatest Dancer final

Lily and Joseph are preparing to dance their hearts out in the show's grand finale on Saturday, March 7.

The young performers, who train in Sunderland, will take to the stage in a bid to take home The Greatest Dancer trophy on Saturday, March 7 after weeks of success on the programme’s live shows.

Lily, 11, and Joseph, eight, have been rehearsing hard at The Worx – Dance Theatre Arts in High Street West to perfect their routine – and they have the full support of the city, and wider North East region, behind them ahead of the big night.
