Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks Opening at Theatre Decatur

Mike — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 13:48:56 +0000

An aging but formidable woman hires an acerbic dance instructor to give her lessons in St. Petersburg Beach, Florida. Antagonism between a gay man and the widow of a Southern Baptist minister gives way to profound compatibility as they swing dance, tango, foxtrot and cha-cha while sharing more than dance steps.

During the sixth and final lesson, she reveals a closely guarded secret and he shares his greatest gifts. As he takes her in his arms on the final meeting, they both transcend fear and mortality while the sun sets on their last dance.
