Dallas Swing Dance Society

"Classic Musicals Collection: Cole Porter" contains "Kiss Me Kate," "High Society," "Silk Stockings," "Les Girls" and "Broadway Melody Of 1940" "Kiss Me Kate" - Fred and Lilly are a divorced pair of actors who are brought together by Cole Porter who has written a musical version of "The Taming of the Shrew". Of course, the couple seem to act a great deal like the characters they play. A fight on the opening night threatens the production, as well as two thugs who have the mistaken idea that Fred owes their boss money and insist on staying next to him all night. "High Society" - Heiress Tracy Lord (Grace Kelly) is engaged to one man (John Lund), attracted to another (Frank Sinatra) and, just maybe, in love again with her ex-husband (Bing Crosby) in this efferevescent musical reinvention of Philip Barry's play The Philadelphia Story featuring an endlessly delightful Cole Porter score. Among "High Society's" high points: Sinatra and Celeste Holm ask "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?," Crosby and Kelly share "True Love," "Der Bingle" and Ol' Blue Eyes swing-swing-swingle Well, Did You Evah? and Crosby and Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong jive with "Now You Has Jazz." Yes, indeedy, we has! "Silk Stockings" - You'd think chilled borscht pulses in her veins. She's Nina Yoshenka, a lovely yet severe Soviet envoy sent to Paris to rescue wayward comrades from the perils of champagne and capitalism. But there may be a thaw in Nina's Cold War. She meets Steve Canfield, a smoothly brash American who won't take nyet for an answer. Fred Astaire and Cyd Charisse recapture the magic of their "The Band Wagon" pairing in this musical based on the same-titled 1955 Broadway hit and on the famed 1939 Greta Garbo comedy "Ninotchka." Set to witty Cole Porter tunes, spiked with laughs and featuring the two leads dancing the Eugene Loring-Hermes Pan choreography into timeless emotion, "Silk Stockings" shows why elegance and fun never of out of style.

In a world dominated by teenagers, it's easy to forget that popular culture once catered to adults. Mark Judge shows that the simultaneous rise of rock and suburbia produced a narcissistic society drained of joy and hope. Yet in the revival of swing dancing, he detects a model for cultural renewal.

Royal Scottish Country Dance Society - The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society (RSCDS), was founded in 1923 as the Scottish Country Dance Society by Jean Milligan and Ysobel Stewart of Fasnacloich, who wanted to preserve country dancing as performed in Scotland, country dancing having fallen into disuse after the influx of continental ballroom dances such as the waltz or quadrilles and, later on, American-style dances like the One-step or foxtrot. (The SCDS didn't become the RSCDS until the early 1950s.

Dallas Historical Society - The Dallas Historical Society was organized on March 31, 1922, by citizens who wished to encourage historical inquiry. In 1938, the Society assumed the management of the Hall of State at the request of the City of Dallas.
