Start Thurrock – Tilbury Picnic in the Park
Dance through the decades at Tilbury Picnic in the Park! Glass House Dance invite you to join them on a clubbing journey through the ages at Tilbury Picnic in the Park. They’re looking for foot-tappers, dad dancers, disco divas, jumping jivers, old school ravers and everyone in between to get involved in the paPlus, Applause Rural Touring and Casson & Friends will be there for a performance of their interactive dance show Arcade from their Let’s Play THURROCK! project which they have been working on across the borough over the last several months!
Each show features six unique games with a fun and bouncy electronic soundtrack.Start Thurrock is about listening to your creative ideas and interests, and what you need and want. Letting our communities have a say. We don’t present you with cultural events we ‘think you might like’ – we include you so that you have an impact on all decisions. We’re here to give more people the opportunity to be creative, and for you to decide what creative activities you want to see, experience or take part in. Plus there‘s a live DJ set, face painting and a host of other family entertainment including more performances from local groups.
