Be young, be foolish, be happy, and BE THERE for Savannah's 1st annual Shag Show at Coach's Corner on Saturday, August 21, featuring the Fabulous Equinox Orchestra. In the late 1930s, before our boys were called off to war, the waitresses and lifeguards of the Carolina beaches began dancing in a new style. Some called it the Jitterbug, others the Boogie Woogie, but before long it became known as "The Shag." As original Shagger Dino Thompson describes it, "We started dancing like we talked to girls at the beach - laid back, slow and easy." Set to the music of Motown, blues shuffles, and beach melodies, this "swing dance of the south" has been enshrined as the official state dance of the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry. But now Jeremy Davis, Clay Johnson, and the Fabulous Equinox Orchestra are putting their own modern stamp on this cultural phenomenon that you will not want to miss, so reserve your tickets today!
Kenny Munshaw opens the show at 7pm!
