The night will be packed with unforgettable performances as each couple performs two dances to some of Prince’s most iconic hits: one in a style they have not yet tackled this season, and one repeat style that gives them the chance to show how far they’ve come in hopes of making the finale and the chance to move into the final for a chance to win the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.
