Ballroom Dance has been a major part of Broadway musicals since the beginning of musicals. We here at Ballroom College want to celebrate all the amazing dancing with a day dedicated to some classic Broadway numbers and dances.
As Winter melts away to Spring and the grass starts to grow we’re waking up from our cold winter's nap. We’re incredibly excited to offer a selection of classes that will pump up your energy and leave you singing in the streets! No dance experience, No problem!
We’ll begin our afternoon, at noon, celebrating a dance that sets up some of the most tense Tango scenes from Broadway history. We’ll be dancing to pieces from Chicago, and Rent.
Next we head south of the border for the latin beats that keep us moving all night. At 12:45pm we’ll hold our Latin on Broadway Class featuring music from In The Heights, West Side Story, and Get on Your Feet.
After that we pay homage to one of the best to ever do it, George Gershwin. At 1:30pm we’ll spin and dip to a bevy of his songs from Crazy for You, An American in Paris, and Porgy and Bess.
Finally, at 2:15pm we dance one of the most joyous American dance forms in Swing. We’ll be featuring music from Chicago, Hairspray, and Sweet Charity.
All events are held at BC’s Lakeview studio: 4011 N. Ravenswood Ave #101. Chicago, IL 60613. Ample free parking is available, and public transportation (Irving Park brown line, #80 bus, #9 bus, #50 bus) is easily accessible. All guests must be 18 years or older to attend.
