Halleluja-Procession. Dancers and seminarians of the Fiji Islands during the Final Mass of World Youth Day

That the Mass is nothing but entertainment to watch. No Mass is the place for something like this to happen reguardless if it is inside a Church or outside. If you want to sing and dance do it at home not at church.
If this had happened in a church at home with any kind of dancing I would have got up and left. Then reported it to the bishop.
Its because of these reasons that I hate to go on vacation and have to go to a different church because I never know what kind of horror I'll walk into on any given Sunday. I would rather go to confession saying that I left Mass early than deal with that.
