Project Description
IT TAKES TWO!
MAY 28, 2022
NORTHEAST OHIO’S SIGNATURE DANCE GALA
Where Local Celebrities Turn Into Stars!
It Takes Two! is GroundWorks DanceTheater’s annual fundraising gala, a highly-anticipated Dancing with the Stars-style competition featuring local celebrity dancers paired alongside GWDT dancers. The evening also includes dinner, live music and dancing. This year’s gala will take place at the rustic-chic Tenk West Bank, a converted warehouse that was originally built in the 1880s as a machine and tool factory. Located along the West Bank of the Flats, the venue has exposed brick, wood and metal beams combined with factory-style windows creating a unique atmosphere for this year’s event. Be sure to grab a ticket, vote for your favorite celebrity, and join in on the fun!
Proceeds support GroundWorks DanceTheater’s work in creating and presenting groundbreaking contemporary dance performances and life-enriching educational and outreach programs in Northeast Ohio.
