Contemporary Dance Fort Worth invites everyone to come boogie at the 1st Annual “Dance ‘Til Ya Drop” Dance Party and Dance Marathon on January 28, 2006. Dancers love to dance, and you’ll have plenty of room to “shake that thing” in the Ballroom at Southside Preservation Hall (1519 Lipscomb St., Fort Worth, TX 76104 – just south of Magnolia, one block west of Hemphill).

Come dance alongside members of the CDFW company and their friends to the best dance music around. The always entertaining local actor Les Cargot Hofheinz will serve as the evening’s emcee. You can come and dance for fun, or you can be a “marathoner” to help raise money for CDFW. Marathoners should contact the CDFW office to get a pledge packet, or can download information from the web site at Contemporary Dance Fort Worth. Music featured will include:
