Orlando Shakespeare Theater to Host Dance Party on the Set of THE GREAT GATSBY

Join Orlando Shakespeare Theater (Orlando Shakes) for a 1920s themed dance class inspired by F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby. Led by The Great Gatsby choreographer Richard Lamberty, participants will learn steps to the "Charleston," the "Waltz," the "Turkey Trot," and the "Shimmy." After a short dance tutorial in a studio rehearsal hall, participants will get to practice the dances from the production on the set of The Great Gatsby.
