Alan Bersten is the artist of suspense. With the caption “It’s almost time to defy gravity!!!” which was minimal but very electric, he made a connection right away with those who are fond of musical theatre. The super video with a voice saying in a victorious way “I’m the one who won! It’s me! It’s me!” points to the very musical Wicked and its heavenly song “Defying Gravity.” There will not only be dancing. As if through the making of a complete theatrical extravaganza, Bersten’s audience is already more than ready to take the journey with him.

Hype was the only thing in the comment section and it was very clear. One user summed up the feeling of the group very well saying, “This is so wickedly awesome 👏,” which was a perfect and easy way to hit the pun and the compliment at the same time. Another one categorized the performance the “dance of the night i can already tell,” giving a strong hint to the level of trust and expectation the dancer has built up with the audience throughout the years of dancing with them. They are not just hoping for a nice routine; they already know it will be a highlight.

Costume and production value are the essential components of the glam that Dancing With The Stars presents, and the audience had started to speculate on what the future would be like even then. One of the comments read, “I cannot wait to see your costumes, hair, and makeup,” and it also implied that for some people, the visual change is as much fun to watch as the dance itself. The whole dedication to the theme entrance will probably result in the audience being taken to the land of Oz.

The loving vibe brought out some humorous comments. One user teased, jokingly, “Yall took my creeper dolly? 😂,” associating the video camera work with the funny comment that is indicative of the engagement and friendliness the community around Bersten feels. Another one even quoted the musical saying, “It’s me, it’s MEEEEE!!! 🫶🏻💜,” showing that the iconic lines of the source material are so much in the heads of people that they are almost living there without paying rent. Such participation in sharing joy makes a simple social media update like a community event.

This post of Alan Bersten not only serves as a marketing tool but is also an exhibition of his ambition. The song “Defying Gravity” is a huge challenge—it is one of the most popular and dynamic songs in the world of contemporary theater. By guaranteeing that he will literally defy gravity in the ballroom, he hints that there will be lifts, tricks, and such a high level of athleticism that the performance can be pushed to the top of the leaderboard—just like one hopeful fan has already spelled out. Indeed the buzz is there, the hopes are sky-high, and if online reactions are anything to go by, Alan Bersten is about to produce a bewitching moment. He just needs to be let fly now.
