Ivy + Bean: Doomed to Dance

In the quaint town of Maplewood, Ivy and Bean are the most unlikely of friends. Ivy, a bookish and imaginative girl with a passion for fairy tales, is the picture of creativity and whimsy. Bean, on the other hand, is a lively, tomboyish girl with an adventurous spirit and a knack for trouble. Together, they’ve taken their unconventional friendship to new heights, exploring everything from science experiments to neighborhood capers. However, their bond is put to the test when they stumble upon the annual Maplewood Dance Off, a competition that has everyone — especially the competitive cheerleaders and rhythmic dancers — buzzing with excitement.

When Ivy discovers that the winner of the Dance Off receives a scholarship to their dream art camp, both she and Bean are determined to win, with hopes to unleash their wildest imaginations and creativity. But there’s a catch: neither of them knows how to dance. Despite their inexperience, they plunge into a whirlwind of dance classes, hilariously botched routines, and the discovery of their unique style — a fusion of Ivy’s graceful movements inspired by her favorite storybook heroines and Bean’s energetic, free-spirited flair.

As the competition draws closer, the duo faces hurdles that threaten their friendship and their chances. Jealous rivals spread rumors, casting doubt on their intentions and skill, while unexpected challenges reveal the insecurities they both harbor. Ivy struggles with the pressure of being perfect, while Bean grapples with the fear of failing to stand out in a crowd.

Through humor, heart, and a few unexpected dance mishaps, Ivy and Bean learn that the true essence of dance lies in expression, friendship, and embracing one’s individuality. Their journey is not just about winning a competition but about growing together and supporting each other as they navigate the ups and downs of adolescence. As the Dance Off approaches, will Ivy and Bean overcome their doubts, showcase their unique style, and dance their hearts out? “Ivy + Bean: Doomed to Dance” is a delightful celebration of friendship, creativity, and the courage to be oneself, inviting families to join in on the fun and find their own rhythm.
