Shimmy Showcase Sunday

May 29 -- Join us for the Greatest Shimmyshowcase on Earth with “Under the Big Top.” Ringmaster Saviya leads a sensational lineup featuring amazing animal acts, daring tightrope feats, and freaky side shows—all interpreted through dance of course by Nova Kachina, Bella, Anastasia, Aileen, Shantas, and Rosé.

Our dancers have been working hard polishing their acts; however their greatest act will be donating their tips to “A Place Called Home,” (http://www.apch.org/), a safe haven in South Central Los Angeles where underserved youth are empowered to take ownership of the quality and direction of their lives through programs in education, arts, and well-being; and are inspired to make a meaningful difference in their community and the world.

You don’t want to miss the Circus fun, so please join us this holiday weekend at I-Candy where you can dine on a reasonably priced meal, enjoy a stupendous show, experience great camaraderie among our friendly dance community, and, as if that isn’t enough, donate to a worthy cause. This is a show that is guaranteed to please all! AND DON’T FORGET –we begin at 6:00 pm!

Note—N405-W22 (7th St) transition is closed for construction, so folks who normally take that route please take note and allow enough time for an alternate route!

Calling All Dancers—We have dancer openings June 26 and July 10. Please read below for details and contact us at Shimmyshowcase@gmail.com if you’d 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! As further incentive, there is a 10% off coupon below good on any I-Candy food or beverage on Shimmyshowcase nights.

SHIMMY SHOWCASE at I-Candy Coffee begins at 6:00 p.m. I-Candy is located in Long Beach at 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. We appreciate your arrival 15 minutes before show time (earlier if you’re a performer!) so you can get your refreshments and grab a seat and allow us to begin promptly at the scheduled time.
