Benefit: Valentine’s Day Ballroom Dance

February
4

How often do you get to dance with a champion?

That’s what you’ll get to do on Feb. 9 in Stony Point, when “Dancing with the Stars” star Anna Trebunskaya lends her quick feet to Rockland Country Day School. Joining Trebunskaya will be â€Ĺ“Dancing with the Starsâ€? guest performers Jose DeCamps and Joanna Zacharewicz and PBS’ â€Ĺ“America’s Ballroom Challengeâ€? performers Pasha Pashkov and Inna Brayer.

The Valentine’s Ballroom Dance Benefit starts with dinner at 6 p.m. at the Clubhouse at Patriot Hills in Stony Point.

Afterwards, the audience gets up-close views of the stars doing the waltz, mambo, rumba, foxtrot, swing, tango and the cha-cha-cha. Then the fun begins, when people can bid on which star they’d like to dance with. (Organizers say no dance experience is needed; the stars, apparently, will lead.)

Proceeds from this event benefit Rockland Country Day School (RCDS) in Congers, whose alumni includes actress Tyne Daley. The event is open to the public and to students 10 years and older. Tickets are $150 to $300 each. For
more information and tickets call RCDS at 845-268-6802, ext. 202 or
visit rocklandcds.org.

About this blog
If it involves theater in any way -- from grade-schoolers learning Shakespeare to high school musicals to Broadway veterans getting into character -- this is the place to talk about it. We'll have audition notices, casting notices, mini-reviews and plenty of ideas to fill a theater junkie's to-do list.
