Here's another one...

The Artists Lab presents Try Matty s the Seventh Annual Halloween Dance and Show, which takes place on Friday, October 30 from 9:30pm - 12:30am, with an 11:00pm showtime. The event will be held at Dance Manhattan, 39 West 19th St., New York City.

Try Matty s tells the story of patients in the psych ward of St. Matthew s State Hospital. We see the stories of the head nurse and patients of the ward, the good and evil within, and the head nurse ultimately turning into one of the patients.

This Artists Lab production features routines set to Love Lockdown by Kanye West, Disturbia by Rihanna, Goodbye My Lover by James Blunt and Rehab by Amy Winehouse amongst others.

Featured performers include Maria Enaboifo, Suzanne Temple, Donna Roesel, Amalia Maldonado, Emily Edwards, Havard "Hooba" Bjornevold, and Joe Palmer and a host of other professional and amateur dancers and musicians.

A California mix of music with a mix of swing (lindy and west coast) along with some salsa, cha cha, and two-step will be Dj d by Joe Palmer for the remainder of the evening.

Try Matty s is created and produced by Joe Palmer and Catherine Schmetter and directed and choreographed by Joe Palmer, who has been competing, performing and teaching ballroom, Latin and swing for over thirteen years.

The Artists Lab is a welcoming environment dedicated to creative exploration, collaboration and inspiration. The Lab offers a forum in which artists and designers can showcase work, interact, and market their products.

Tickets are 15 and can be purchased at the door. For further information, please call (212) 807-0802 or go to www.dancemanhattan.com.

Rick - slight problem with my copy/paste from my original post about the event... I've updated it. The event is Friday night, not Saturday. If you'd update again, I'd appreciate it!!!
