Waterloo is over! Peace is restored! And Paris is dancing!
On Saturday, October 24th, 2015, in New Haven, Connecticut we will have a night of Regency-era revelry in the style of post-Napoleonic France! This will be our thirteenth annual Regency Assembly in New Haven.
Kickery author and dance historian Susan de Guardiola will be calling the dances to the wonderful dance music of The Flying Romanos. The program will include quadrille, waltz, and a selection of unusual French dances including Le Grand-Père, Le Rond de Rocha, La Bagdad, La Mont-Ferine, and La Boulangère. There will also be popular Scottish imports such as Le Moniemusk and Le Contrebanquine!
An afternoon workshop (free with ball registration) will review the dances for the evening.
Regency costume or modern formalwear is strongly encouraged. Light refreshments will be served.
Registration is limited to 60 people. No partner is required. $30 per person in advance ($20 for ages 13-21; under 13 free with parent). More at the door!
Please see the Bal à Paris website for more details and to register, and join our event page on Facebook for updates!
