As part of the City Artists Corps Showcase, Project Connect is proudly presenting the excerpts from its new interactive swing dance show called Swing into the Past: A Night at the Savoy!

"Swing into the Past," an interactive dance theater showcases authentic Lindy Hop while educating about the history and the cultural context of the dance. The plot follows two siblings who time travel to Savoy Ballroom in 1939. Through their eyes, the audience experiences the magnificent Savoy Ballroom first hand, witnessing real events at Savoy and learning about the dance and Jazz music. The show will feature high intensity choreographed lindy hop dances with air steps as well as improvised social dancing. The show will be interactive and participatory so that the audience can truly experience the power of Lindy Hop.

It is FREE!! However, you need to reserve your ticket at the link below. https://queenstheatre.org/.../swing-into-the-past-a.../
