Description
The concert and interactive program are part of the Music School’s celebrated Cultural Crossroads Series. This promises to be a fun trip back in time to the Decade of Excess, when music, fashion, and hair were BIG! You will hear classic songs by AC/DC, The Cure, Harold Faltermeyer, Peter Gabriel, Whitney Houston, Motley Crue, Ozzy Osbourne, Poison, and Van Halen. There will be an onstage fashion show (with prizes) for audience members to flaunt their leggings, shoulder pads, teased hair, and other period-correct items to a purely ’80s soundtrack. A dance workshop will allow audience members to work on their dance moves from the some of the most ‘80s music videos. Finally, a trivia game show will test patrons knowledges of the eras cultural highlights from Duran Duran to Iran-Contra.
