Dancing With The Stars

Dancing with the Stars was produced by TV Three in 2019, at a time Jude Dobson (Homegrown Producer) was between projects. When she was asked to participate as a contestant, after some soul searching about just how scared she wanted to be, she decided to lean into the fear and give it a go.

Dancing with professional dancer Matt Tatton - Brown, Jude picked Plunket (NZ’s largest provider of services to babies and young children) as her chosen charity, given her passion for the importance of the first 1000 days of life.

Being out of the running to win the glitter ball trophy didn’t matter because Plunket received a donation of just under $50,000 in the winnings shared by all the contestants. The eclectic class of DWTS 2019 became firm buddies through the shared experience of dancing in public and trying something that puts you way out of your comfort zone!
