Jane Austen/Australian Regency Dance
23 April 2021
A Jane Austen dance for the National Heritage Festival.
At the time Jane Austen was frolicking in the ballrooms of England, the early settlers in Australia were enjoying the same tunes and dances, particularly in the elite ballroom of Government House, Sydney. Join us for a lively romp through the dances beloved by both Jane and our ancestors.
Live music by Phillip’s Dog, early colonial dance ensemble.
