Our performance is looking amazing and we can't wait to show it to everyone on Saturday night, here's all the info you need:
Performance Ball:
Saturday 27th June | 7.00-11.45pm
Marrickville Town Hall, 303 Marrickville Road, Marrickville
Swing Patrol Rehearsal | 3:00–3:25pm
A final rehearsal on the day in the hall. This is optional, but it would be great if you can make it to orient yourself and get familiar with the space.
Swing Patrol Final Run-through | 7.30pm
We will meet in the foyer and find a space outside for one final run-through to refresh your memories before the big performance.
Swing Patrol Performance Time | 8.00pm
Aim to be at the hall with plenty of time to find a park. Make sure you have found your partner and are dressed and ready to go at least 10 minutes before our performance time.
Costume ideas:
Ideally wear a combinataion of red/black/white, but don’t stress if you don’t have anything. It would be great if each couple can have at least a touch of red somewhere – eg a red flower, scarf, tie or socks that’s fine.

Marrickville Town Hall, 303 Marrickville Road, Marrickville
Swing Patrol Rehearsal | 3:00–3:25pm
A final rehearsal on the day in the hall. This is optional, but it would be great if you can make it to orient yourself and get familiar with the space. Aim to get there early to find a park and ensure you’re on time. We only have a small slot to practice in and need to be on time! The hall is booked for our event all day, so you should be able to leave your costume there and pick it up in the evening if that is easier for you too.
Swing Patrol Performance Time (TBA)
Aim to be at the hall at least by 8:00pm and leave time to find a park. Make sure you have found your partner and are dressed and ready to go at least 10 minutes before our performance time. If you are no-where to be found we will have to start without you!
Costume ideas:
Ideally wear a combinataion of red/black/white, but don’t stress if you don’t have anything. It would be great if each couple can have at least a touch of red somehwere – eg a red flower, scarf, tie or socks that’s fine. Don’t feel like you have to buy something, we can lend you a red flower, scarf or top if that helps.

Here's the second half of the routine - Dave is demonstrating the all-in solo jazz and Jo and Andy are demonstrating the Shine section. We are now pretty much finished with the choreography so the last two weeks will be spent on practicing and polishing for the performance at the Performance Ball on Saturday June 27th.
I've attached the latest version of the choreography sheet as well, our song is "Yes Indeed" by Sy Oliver which you can find on Spotify (although we are using a slightly faster version).
We are hoping to extend the next two weeks classes by about 30 mins to give us more time to practice. See you there and get your tickets for the ball!
