Danny Tidwell dies at 35
    2020-03-09  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

DANNY TIDWELL, a finalist on Fox’s “So You Think You Can Dance?,” died on Friday, according to his brother and fellow dancer, Travis Wall. He was 35.

“Yesterday I lost a brother. And we all lost a gift,” Wall wrote. “I’m not ready. But I never think I will be. Because I can’t believe this is real. I can’t believe you’re gone. You were more than my brother. You were my inspiration. I idolized you growing up. Wanted to dance just like you. Wanted to be you! I wish I could jump in your arms again like we used to when we were kids and onstage dancing.”

Tidwell was a runner-up on Fox’s third season of the dance competition series in 2007.

From Norfolk, Virginia, Tidwell began dancing as a child, attending Kirov Academy of Ballet at 15. He’d go on to work with the American Ballet Theater as well as perform in works by famed choreographers, including Mia Michaels and Debbi Allen (who was a guest judge during his time on “So You Think You Can Dance”).

Via Instagram, Tidwell’s husband David Benaym posted a lengthy tribute on Saturday afternoon. “I’m devastated that my Danny, the love of my life, my beloved friend, the artist, the talented angel, fierce mind, legendary dancer, my now late husband, Danny Tidwell died last night in a car crash while his friend was driving him home from work,” wrote Benaym.

Further in the post, he said, “We were so lucky to have him, life was so challenging for him. But he was a warrior, and he came back standing, always.”
