Community Swing Dance on Saturday

The Bainbridge Band Boosters invite the community to the 11th Annual Community Swing Dance on Saturday, November 8th at 6:30 p.m. in the Bainbridge High School Commons. This all-ages, family-friendly event will feature three hours of swing dancing to live Big Band Jazz music performed by the award-winning Bainbridge High School Jazz Collective.

The evening will include free swing dance lessons, a silent auction, and the chance to experience live jazz performed by BHS student musicians.

Proceeds from the event will support BISD Bands at Bainbridge High School, Woodward Middle School, and Sakai Intermediate School.

Tickets are $50 for adults and $20 for students with a school ID. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit www.BainbridgeJazz.org.
 

BHS Fall Play Opens November 14

BHS Theater presents It's a Wonderful Life on November 14-15, and November 21-22.

In our American culture It’s a Wonderful Life is a natural for a stage adaptation. In our telling of the saga of George Bailey, he is the everyman from the city of Seattle, whose dreams of escape and adventure have been quashed by family obligation and civic duty amidst the background of the Boeing Bust (1969-1971). His guardian angel (in the form of a clairvoyant fortune teller) has to save him from despair and to remind him—by showing him what the world would have been like had he never been born—that his has been, after all, a wonderful life. This dramatization celebrates the American philosophy of life: hard work, fair play and the love and support of one's family and community will be rewarded.

Tickets are on sale now for four evening performances and two matinees. We hope to see you there!
