World Pride Had a Stage. So Did Devante Latorre.

Choreography by Devante Latorre

Some performances happen for an audience. World Pride happens for an entire community, and the pressure of that difference changes what a stage actually demands. Devante Latorre performed at World Pride alongside Jessica Mauboy and Courtney Act, sharing a stage built not just for entertainment but for genuine celebration — the kind of event where the energy in the room is as much a part of the performance as the choreography itself.

That instinct for reading a room and matching its exact energy is precisely what Latorre brought into The Manor LDN's Finsbury Park studio. Performing alongside artists like Mauboy and Act at an event of World Pride's scale requires more than technical polish; it requires understanding what a specific crowd, on a specific day, actually needs from the performer in front of them. Few masterclasses can teach that kind of instinct directly, but training with someone who's had to deliver it live, in front of thousands, gets dancers about as close as a class can.

For a performer whose versatility already spans stadium sport, television, and global brand campaigns, World Pride adds something the other credits don't: proof that Latorre's range isn't just about different formats, it's about genuinely understanding the moment he's performing in — and that instinct was exactly what dancers got to train alongside in London.
