SUMMARY:Lord Mayor's Tea Dance Sunday Afternnon 25th January 3pm-5pm City Hall\, Cork
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Evelyn Grant and the Cork Pops Orchestra\, Keith Hanley (Voice of Ireland) and Emma Sophia Age 9.\n\nA January 'Gathering' of young and old\, from communities all over Cork and beyond who love to dance\, will take to the floor in City Hall\, to the music of Evelyn Grant and the Cork Pops Orchestra.\n\nThis programme will include Strauss waltzes and polkas to celebrate the 200th Strauss anniversary.\n\nThe Lord Mayor's Tea Dance is a not-for-profit initiative organised by a local committee of people from the public\, private and voluntary sectors and in conjunction with the Lord Mayor of Cork.\n\nThe committee is chaired by Dr. Andrew Crosbie.\n\nThe orchestra will be joined by soloist Keith Hanley (Voice of Ireland) and 9 year old Emma Sophia.\n\nYoung people are invited to bring an older person or a group of older people to the 'Ball'.\n\nPrevious Tea Dances have proven to be great fun and the need for these events is greater now than ever before. These dances recognise the role of a previous generation and offer a wonderful opportunity to celebrate and acknowledge this contribution.\n\nWe are inviting 'The Young at Heart' of the nation to use the 'free travel' to come to Cork for the 'craic'. We hope by publicising this event nationwide that local groups in cities towns and villages throughout the country will repeat this initiative.\n\nEntertainment is provided by the Cork Pops Orchestra conducted by Evelyn Grant and we expect some of our dancers to out-dance 'Strictly Come Dancing'.\n\nRona Coulter from Viva Dance studio will lead the floor for a legendary 'Slosh' involving everyone in the hall.\n\nThe Cork Pops Orchestra will perform a selection of up-tempo and 'smoochy' numbers. Dancers can enjoy a range of music from Johann Strauss to Abba and demonstrate their dancing skills in waltzes\, tangos\, two-steps\, swing dancing and a bit of rock 'n' roll.\n\nThere will be a raffle in aid of Ethopian Deaf Project.\n\nA voluntary Cork organisation committed to raising funds for the education of Deaf children at the Ambo Lazarist Deaf School in Ethiopia. We have a special concern for Deaf children living in rural communities who are very marginalised and have no access to school.
