Social Dis-Dance With “High Strung Free Dance” On Netflix

Described as the next CENTER STAGE (Nicole Pajer, PARADE), the sequel to the first High Strung movie (currently streaming on Hulu), HIGH STRUNG FREE DANCE, will arrive on Netflix starting Friday, May 31st, 2020. The thrilling romantic dance movie tells the story of Zander Raines (Thomas Doherty), a dazzling and tempestuous young choreographer who gives the break of a lifetime to two hopeful artists when he casts a stunning contemporary dancer, Barlow (Juliet Doherty) and innovative pianist, Charlie (Harry Jarvis) in New York's most-anticipated new Broadway show: Free Dance. But the move throws off the show's delicate creative balance when Charlie falls hard for Barlow while Zander embraces her as his muse.
