3-week performance series. Thursdays Nov. 2, 9, & 16 at 5:30pm at Philly Dance Fitness Midtown (13th & Locust). Performance will be on Friday Nov. 17, Burlesque show at Ruba Club in Philadelphia.
Calling all musical theater junkies who love the limelight! We’re co-producing a Broadway-themed burlesque show in November and reserving stage time for two student routines! Lee-Ann will be teaching a sassy, show-stopping number from “Chicago” featuring plenty of jazz walks, sashays and kick-ball changes. And Deb’s got a classic burlesque routine to “Big Spender” full of shimmies, bumps and grinds.
Both finished pieces will be performed at the debut “Take It Off Broadway” show, a mix of burlesque, dance and drag, held at the Ruba Club on Nov. 17. (For the burlesque routine, we’ll be stripping off gloves and other items depending on each dancer’s comfort level — so no need to worry about getting down to pasties unless you want to! The jazz routine won’t involve any clothing removal.)
No prior musical theater or dance experience required to participate – we’ve designed the choreography so that dancers of all levels can shine. But space is limited, so please pre-register if you’d like to join us in strutting your stuff onstage!
