Tea Dances : Ragroof Theatre host stylish afternoon tea dances for all ages and levels of experience.
The themed Tea Dances brought to you by the Ragroof Players offer a truly unique experience as the players in costume and character take you and your guests back to by-gone eras.
Your chosen venue will be transformed into a glamorous ballroom, either inside or out, with a ‘DJ for discerning dancers,’ authentic entertainment, ballroom, Latin and swing dance displays and inclusive dance classes. You can hire this group to bring a stylish and swinging alternative to a simple ‘stop and stare’ form of stage act.
An authentic and diverse range of entertainment, including a DJ for discerning dancers, dance displays, instant dance classes aimed at absolute beginners and plenty of opportunity for experienced dancers to show their skills. Our tea dances can be produced indoors or out, transforming your environment into a glamorous ballroom with our own dance floor, bunting and PA system.
