UT Ballroom Dance Team to present Halloween dance showcase

On Nov. 1 the UT Ballroom Dance Team will host “Spooky Soiree,” a Halloween Dance Showcase,  in the University Center Ballroom.  Both students and non-students are encouraged to attend the showcase. Tickets are on sale for $5 for students and $10 for non-students.  The money raised during the event will help the club go to the Ballroom Collegiate Nationals in Columbus, Ohio later in the month.

Guests will be treated to Halloween themed dance performances by the ballroom team, performance team and the intermediate and advanced dance classes.  There will also be a performance by the UT founded BOSS dance company.  There is no need for prior dance experience because guests will be taught by the dancers themselves.

“The event will have the showcase portion,” said Michaela Robbins, UT Ballroom Dance Team President. “Then there will be a short 30 minute lesson in one of the ballroom or Latin style dances, then we will have general dancing for the remainder of the evening.”

Also near the end of the night there will be a prize given for the winners of the costume contest for best male and female costumes.
