Born to Prance...

As part of the First Friday Evening performance, Castlereagh Arts presented Anthea McWilliams’ show Born to Prance. The audience was all female, with the Arts officer as the only male representative!

It was a good recipe for a Friday night’s entertainment; a nice helping of dance and comedy, a splash of music and visuals, with a generous topping of nibbles and drinks; enough to keep the audience fuelled for taking their turn at the dancing!

The solo performance of Anthea McWilliams was funny and unique, the tale of a woman who decided to celebrate her 50th birthday by dancing from the very top to the very bottom of Ireland (Donegal to Cork). She used various media to tell the audience of her epic odyssey. First and foremost, she used dancing, then drama, read her notes and showed videos and pictures of what really happened on her Irish prancing tour…on the whole, a good night with some laughs and plenty of exercise for all!
