dance solo
Unaccompanied stage movement
A dance solo is a performance by a single dancer, as opposed to a duet, group number, or ensemble piece.
The term appears frequently in competitive dance and ballet contexts: She performed a contemporary dance solo at regionals.
In casual use, to dance solo simply means dancing alone: I ended up doing a dance solo when my partner left early.
