Slow Dance Social: Music from the Movies

19th May 2017

Presenter: Slow Dance Social

Event Duration: 180 minutes

The Velvet Bunnies are back to provide us with a cinematic soundtrack of Slow Dance Social: Music from the Movies.

This dance-card-driven non-heternormative Slow Dance Social night celebrates all that is vintage and slow - delayed gratification, conscientious communication and sweet, soulful tunes to sway along too.

In an age where physical contact is a scarce commodity, the event brings strangers safely together with all the romance and charming awkwardness of a high school dance without the angst and paranoia - it's high school with a happy ending!

The evening starts with a short lesson on how to ask for and accept (or refuse!) dances, decide who's going to lead (it's not gender specific!) and how to hold each other for maximum benefit for all.

24 dances follow, interspersed with breaks for refreshments and door prize giveaways from fabulous and generous sponsors.

* Dress Code: Red carpet glamour or movie characters!
* Doors open for drinks at 7.30PM
* Dancing will start with a short lesson at 8.00PM
* Finally, you do not have to be queer to attend this party, but you must have an open mind, an open heart and open arms.

We're striving to raise funds and spirits to combat depression, anxiety and social isolation.  Proceeds from this dance will go to Equal Love #getclosegetslow
