UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Dance like you see it done on stage, only this time you’re on stage!

The Center for the Performing Arts is moving the party indoors with the return of the Let’s Dance Movement Workshop for All Ages, All Abilities. The event will be at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 13, on the Eisenhower Auditorium stage.

Join members of the For Good Troupe, directed by Krista Wilkinson, as they perform excerpts from their favorite musical theater songs. After the performance, Michele Dunleavy, Penn State professor of dance, will teach all in attendance some basic choreography moves.

No singing or dancing experience is necessary to have fun. Loose, comfortable clothing is encouraged for easier movement.

An ASL interpreter, captioning, wheelchair access and inclusionary practices for neurodiverse participants will be provided. To discuss accommodations to help you flourish in this space, contact Kelly Kaiserian at kvk2@psu.edu or 814-865-4727.

The one-hour event is free, but a $15 donation is suggested, and registration is required. Anyone interested can complete the online registration form.
