IN-PERSON EVENTS. That pretty much sums it up. See you on the real, live dance floor!

Friday-Sunday, May 6th-8th ~ St Katharine’s, Parmoor, Frieth, England
Early Dance Circle Biennial Conference 2022: Retrieving & Reconstructing the Past through Dance (Facebook event)
This conference will feature an international set of speakers on historical dance topics spanning the 15th century to the 20th, plus five workshops, three performances, and an evening of participatory dance. I will be presenting a paper on the opening "changes" of the mid- to late-18th century French contredanse (cotillion, square dance) and teaching a workshop on a late 1810s French version of Le Grand-Père, a Continental finishing dance. A full list of contributors and paper/workshop topics is included on the registration form (pdf).
Saturday, May 21st ~ Essex, Connecticut
The Essex 1814 Ball (Facebook event) - CANCELLED
A formal 1810s ball with live music by Marnen Laibow-Koser and Jean Monroe and an American-specific program of country dances and cotillions. $25 in advance; ticket information here.

I am once again available to travel for in-person dance teaching, lecturing, and ball precepting, always providing the pandemic does not spiral back into disaster again. I am also still available for private or group online lessons and talks via Skype or Zoom (or your videoconferencing software of choice). Please email me directly if you would like to schedule an event or workshop!

Coming in May: a trip to Germany and an American Civil War Ball in Lackawanna, Pennsylvania!
