2024/2025 Season - Monaco Dance Forum. First popularised in the 1920s and 30s, dance marathons saw couples attempt to keep dancing continuously for as long as they could (simply swaying or stepping were allowed), in the hope of winning a prize of around one hundred dollars. The crash of 1929 brought such grinding poverty that participants were prepared to go to any lengths for a few bucks, turning normally joyous dance marathons into horror balls.Tuesday 17 December 2024, at 7.30 pm, Théâtre des Variétés
