HOUSE OF DANCE

Newsflash:

Arts in Schools Collaborative/Dancing Classrooms Philly (Jane Brooks and Joyce W. Burd Co-Executive Directors), that extra-fabulous program that teaches civility and grace to young people by way of the meringue, tango, swing, and fox trot, is coming right here, to my very own Philadelphia, culminating in a city-wide competition, held December 15th.

I sort of jumped up and down when I heard it. Then I got a hold of myself. Then I was just jumping up and down inside, where no one could see, because nothing goes together better than grace and music and kids.

Stay tuned for details.

PS My own HOUSE OF DANCE isn't coming out until next June (though there are now galleys).
