Toe the Line in Buffalo Grove to host author reading Nov 5
Join at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 5, at Toe the Line, 314 McHenry Road, second floor, in Buffalo Grove, for a special book reading of "Marley Takes The Stage," by author, photographer and dance teacher, Heather Booysen.
"Marley Takes The Stage" is a sweet story of dance, performing and friendship brought to you by Dance Knows No Boundaries & Movement In Motion Photography.
As Marley gets ready for her first dance performance, she is excited and ready to shine on stage. When Marley steps inside the theatre for the first time, she starts to get a little nervous. She joins her dance friends as they learn about everything that goes on backstage and watch each other take turns dancing on stage during dress rehearsal. By the time it's Marley's turn to rehearse with her class, she is no longer nervous and is back to being excited for her big performance.
Marley and her friends visually showcase what dancers in the real world look like. Each and every dancer varies from the next and has a visual representation of inclusion and diversity in dance style, body type, age, ethnicity, gender and ability. Included after the story are images of real life dancers with the same varied representations, celebrating and honoring the beautiful and amazing dancers of the world. "Marley Takes The Stage" is self-published by Heather Booysen and will be available for purchase at the event.
