Shimmy Showcase Sunday

June 20 – Xandra welcomes guest artists Dancing Flower, Nichole, Meryem Vani, and Raks Bahlam to our magic carpet on this Summer’s eve. We hope you can join our friendly Shimmyshowcase family at I-Candy to see these fabulous dancers perform.

SHIMMYSHOWCASE IS LOOKING FOR DANCERS!—On July 11 and July 25 & August 1! Please see below for details (note THEME for July 11!) and contact us at Shimmyshowcase@gmail.com if you would like to perform.

Everyone is invited to this cozy haven for a relaxing evening among friends. Select your favorite beverage, hot or cold, from an assortment of coffees, teas, smoothies or juice; add to that a tasty sandwich or pastry; and then seat yourself alongside our magic carpet to enjoy some really great dancing at NO cover charge! If that isn’t incentive enough, there is even a 20% off coupon below good on any I-Candy food or beverage on Shimmyshowcase nights!

The SHIMMY SHOWCASE begins at 7 p.m. at I-CANDY COFFEE in Long Beach (1708 E. Broadway -- 562-437-3785).

Please allow time for parking to avoid missing any of the fun. Since street parking around I-Candy Coffee is scarce, we recommend you try the perimeter of Bixby park located two blocks east of I-Candy Coffee at Broadway and Cherry. Please try to arrive before 7:00 PM (earlier if you’re a performer!) as we try not to start the show until everyone has settled with a tasty beverage.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Below is our upcoming schedule for the next several Sundays at the I-Candy Coffee in Long Beach. If you are a dancer interested in performing at an upcoming showcase, please check out the schedule below for open dates and then email us at

Shimmyshowcase@gmail.com

with the dates on which you'd like to perform.
