Imagine yourself transported to the world of Jane Austen.
Experience the dances popular in Jane’s day, just as they were in early colonial Australia.
Join us for an evening of Regency dancing in the spacious Dayboro Community Hall.
Dance to the music of Australia’s premier early colonial dance band, Phillip’s Dog. All dances will be taught and called on the night by dance historian and teacher, Dr Heather Blasdale Clarke. You can also join us for two classes prior to the ball to learn the dances.
