Cave to the Rave
13th November 8pm

The Cave to the Rave takes us from the earthen floor of prehistoric man to the polished parquetry of modern dance with a few side steps and knee slides along the way. It’s a dance class for comedy beginners, intermediate and advanced. By the end of the session you will have learnt that it’s not a good idea to crowd surf at a wiggles concert; understand why women dance in a circle around their handbags and learn that asking someone to dance in a lift is awkward even if there is music playing. www.damiancallinan.com.au
