Grand Regency Ball at the Derwent Regency FestivalDance or enjoy the spectacle!
Divine period music including many Tasmanian pieces, by Van Diemen’s Angels (harp, piano, fiddle and flute)
Dancing Masters Katherine Tammaro and David Wanless will lead you through an evening of fun and lively dances. No partner or dancing experience required, though attending one or both workshops earlier in the day would make it even more fun. Dress in something period, dashing or elegant if you can. See https://folktas.org/but-darling-i-have-nothing-to-wear for ideas.
Special guests: Historic Dance Delights from Canberra will provide inspiring dance displays including a magnificent Mazurka Quadrille.
$7-22. Book online at: https://events.humanitix.com/derwentregencyfestival24
There are also dance workshops during the day. Note that you are welcome to attend the evening ball whether or not you have attended the workshops.
This is part of the Derwent Regency Festival, 29th November-2nd December: Celebrate the Regency era in style and fun with events including a Regency evening at Narryna Heritage Museum, dance workshops and a Grand Regency Ball in the fine St James Church Hall in New Town, a Regency Assembly of dancing, music, games, history, a promenade and delicious period food in the historic village of Richmond, and a music and history sail on the majestic tall ship, the Lady Nelson. Four days of fun, food, fine music, dancing and general frivolity. This year we also have a bonus night of historically themed contra dancing on the Monday night.
