MICHAEL Jackson’s Thriller is a timeless classic and this October, children aged eight to 14 will be able to learn the dance just in time for Hallowe’en.

Dance in a Day will be held at G Live on Wednesday, October 28, from 10am to 4pm. The workshop will be led by The Dance Movement, which is a resident company at the Farnham Maltings.

Dancers will need to bring along old clothes as they will be making their own costumes and having their faces painted.

Rachel Palmer, programme director at The Dance Movement said: “Despite being more than 30 years since it was first released, Thriller never fails to appeal. I ran this workshop last October and the kids had a great time.

“To maintain interest levels throughout the day and to keep the session fun, I take several scenes from the music video and break them down into sequences that the children can learn in the time we have. The children have such fun and love getting into character.”

At the end of the day, the children will perform the dance to family and friends. The workshop costs £30 and places can be booked at www.glive.co.uk.
