Tomas Byrne, Niamh Dunne and Martina Lynch are organising this great event on behalf of Avonmore Musical Society as a fundraiser for our upcoming production of "The Wizard of Oz".
"Strictly Come Dancing" is based on the popular BBC programme of the same name. We have various guest dancers dancing on behalf of many Local and National Clubs. Each guest dancer has been paired up with a member of the Avonmore Musical Society. Over the next few weeks they will be practicing their dances in order to have it ready for the Live Show.
