Charles Turner & Uptown Swing; Sw!ng Out, and Eyal Vilner photo by Ernest Gregory

Harlem’s Savoy Ballroom was one of America’s best known and most historically important dance venues, regularly hosting performances by Chick Webb, Ella Fitzgerald, and Count Basie. Renowned as the birthplace of the Savoy-style Lindy Hop predominant among that era's Black dancers, the Ballroom's anti-discrimination policy sparked a cultural cross-pollination that informs popular dance and music to this day. The spirit of the Savoy lives on in this evening of participatory swing dance scored with swing-jazz played by Charles Turner & Uptown Swing and The Eyal Vilner Swing Band. The audience will be joined on the dance floor by professional Savoy swing Lindy Hoppers from choreographer Caleb Teicher's SW!NG OUT.

Conceived by writer, filmmaker, producer, and multiple Tony Award-winning director George C. Wolfe
