It seems like "Dance Moms" will return for a sixth season despite the current cast's uncertainty of returning to the show, after one of its producers posted an audition call in Twitter.
Dance Moms executive producer Bryan Stinson revealed that Lifetime is looking for new talent for the next installment of the hit dance docuseries in his own social media account.
"Is your kid destined for dance stardom? Producers are now casting competitive dancers and their moms for the hit series 'Dance Moms!'" the ad stated.
Stinson's ad posting confirms the production of Dance Moms season six even if the current line-up of cast is contemplating to return to the Lifestyle reality show for various reasons.
Some of the Dance Moms stars earlier revealed their hesitations about returning to the show over the past months. Earlier, Nia Frazier and her mother Holly are rumored to be leaving the show after a feud interrupted between Holly and Abby Lee Miller, the head coach and owner of the Abby Lee Dance Company. Then Kalani Hilliker and her mom Kira Girard claimed that they are already done with the show after Miller cut her out in one of the group performances this season.
Even Miller's favorite and most popular student Maddie Ziegler confessed to MTV Australia that she is not sure if she wants to return for Dance Moms season six. "We just finished filming Season 5," the 13-year-old dancer-actress said. "I'm not sure what's going to happen for Season 6. I don't know if I'm going to do it or not, so it just depends."
Miller herself was also rumored to be quitting the show after she revealed that she is not happy with the payment schemes of the network. But based on the casting call, it seems that her issue with Lifetime had been settled because she will supervise the auditions in Los Angeles.
If the girls will not return next season, then the audition call for new students who want to hone their dancing skills under Miller's ALDC is definitely needed.
However, the aspiring students between the age of six to 12 and their parents should take note that they should be prepared to film for approximately 16 weeks over the next six months in case they make the cut.
Mystic Arts Pictures will facilitate the open call for the casting auditions on September 12.
