SUMMARY:Yuletide Ball - Sold OUT!
DESCRIPTION:In 19th century New England\, the darkness of midwinter was kept at bay with firelight\, song\, stories\, and dancing. Join Footwork & Frolick to bring that tradition to Groton Fest Winter with a ball full of holiday spirit and beginner-friendly dances! \nTaking inspiration from a variety of period sources – everything from the New Year’s party where Jo meets Laurie in Little Women\, to the ghostly visit to Mr. Fezziwig’s Ball in A Christmas Carol\, to the Stahlbaum’s party where Clara receives her Nutcracker – we will sing carols\, dance to period music\, and sample festive treats. All dances will be taught\, and no partner is required to attend. 19th century attire will be admired but is not required – guests are encouraged to wear their midwinter best\, whatever makes you feel most elegant and festive. \n5:00pm – Gather for a caroling procession to the Grange Hall \n5:30pm – Arrival at the Grange Hall for final carols \n6:00pm – Dancing begins in the ballroom \nCaroling Procession\nJoin fellow revelers for a lantern-lit walk from downtown Groton to the Grange Hall (the site of our ball) with period carols lead by Footwork & Frolick. The full walk is about 1/4 of a mile and there are sidewalks covering the whole route. We will plan to sing a few closing carols upon arrival at the hall\, so those who do not wish to process can still sing. (In the case of inclement weather\, we will do all of our caroling indoors at the Grange). Carol lyrics will be provided! \nDancing\nDancing will include a mix of contra dances\, quadrilles\, and round dances (often called “couple dances”). Most dances do not require any special footwork – just walking! All dances will be taught throughout the ball. \nAs was considered polite in the 19th century\, we encourage guests to change partners throughout the evening. You do not need to bring a specific partner\, although we encourage groups to attend – the more the merrier! At our events we use the terms “lead” and “follow” to refer to the roles in the dance. All dancers are welcome to dance either role regardless of gender identity or presentation\, and you’ll often find members of Footwork & Frolick switching between roles throughout the evening. \nWhat to Wear\nGuests are encouraged to come dressed in whatever feels festive and elegant. Historical costumes of the 19th century will be admired but are not required. \nWe do recommend flat or low-heeled shoes\, as modern high heels are not conducive to historical dances.
