Tonight the top 20 dancers on season 8 of So You Think You Can Dance took to the stage for the first performance and voting night of the summer! Each of the top 10 girls and top 10 boys were paired up together to perform one routine.
Unfortunately, dancer Mitchell injured his elbow during rehearsal and was put on doctors orders to sit out the night. That means he did not dance this week and will automatically be up for elimination. Dancing in his place was SYTYCD season 7 favorite Robert Roldan.
