Dance party in the 1940s
A costumed re-enactment of a dance party in the 1940s. The live band is playing jazz. Energetic, athletic and full of fun, the Lindy Hop evolved with the jazz music of the time. The American soldiers stationed in Britain during World War Two brought their dances with them and a craze began. Lindy was a fusion of many dances that preceded it, combining partner and solo dancing. It is mainly based on jazz, tap, breakaway and the Charleston.
