Social Scene: Jazz Dinner Dance

The Jazz Dinner Dance in Semester 1 regained some of its originality with the Dance Committee’s inclusion of one of a live jazz bands this year. Tate Morgan Band treated the 750 party-goers to a dazzling array of great dance music.

Adding to the great fun the DJs Luka Vujanovic, Andy Xie, Dan Paradis, Ethan Melton, Mason O’Brien took to the stage and provided modern classics for the crowd to enjoy.

The event was supported by flame throwers, a ‘swing around’ carnival ride, ‘Wizard of Oz’ film characters, the traditional ice sculpture, excellent food, and several bars serving the popular concoctions.

The creation of the Yellow Brick Road, witches’ dens, a shrubbery, the dance floor and much more was the creative genius of this JDD Committee led by conveners Zoe Anderson, Milly O’Connell, Charlie Morrison, Charlotte Hocking, Felix Power, Abigail Ballhausen, Olivia McMillan, Jackson Broad, Luka Chopra, Levi Williams, and Jack Beck.
