Thrill the World Simultaneous Dance Benefit Will Benefit SecondStory, 10/29

"Thrill The World" is an annual worldwide simultaneous dance of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" for world records and charity.

On October 24th/25th 2009, 22,923 people danced in 32 countries and broke the Record Holders Republic! Volunteers in 278 events around the world thrilled The World in 2009 raising over $85,000 for 80 charities!

As in years past, all money raised from the local Redmond event will go to benefit SecondStory Repetory's education department - SecondStory Conservatory. Every dollar raised by the event directly impacts students by keeping costs down and making arts education accessible to everyone, regardless of income level. This year, thanks to the money raised at last year's "Thrill the World" event, more than 5,000 students benefited from discounted school matinees, scholarships, and drama classes.
