Haunted HaflAdira 2025
Spirited Dance Performances Inspired by Belly Dance
Join us for unique Halloween-themed performances in belly dance, creative dance moves, skits, and lip-syncs! No cover charge. Date and time: Sunday, October 19, 2025 from 1:00pm to 5:00pm. Location: Adira Dance and Costume, 2038 Lincoln Avenue, San Jose, CA Livestream: https://www.facebook.com/AdiraDance/ Venue: Next door to Adira Dance and Costume. Performance Guidelines: We are open to all styles, and since it is a Halloween-themed show, anything goes. The performers are belly dancers, but don't they have to belly dance. We've had skits, parodies, lip syncs, and of course campy belly dancing. Costumes run the gambit, and we encourage creativity. We also get dancers that just perform to Halloween music. There is no set time limit on your performance – most soloists keep under 7 minutes and troupes under 11. We will need to know the length of your performance by Monday, October 6 to set the line-up. Your introduction for your performance, written by you, is due by Monday, October 13. If you would like to perform, please contact us via phone 408-269-0110, email, or message.
