Dance Hall Days - Film Screening and Filmmaker Q and A

Dance halls were once as common as cattle in Texas. Now, the ones that remain exist in a time where their past is legend and their future is uncertain. A cast of iconic characters strive to keep these country institutions alive while one man does his best to make sure that not one more is lost to history.

"Dance Hall Days" is more than a brief or even exhaustive history class in Texas dance halls, but rather a look into the organizations and the people who strive to keep these institutions alive, most which have been open for over a century and still remain significant gathering haunts for local Texas communities.. Visitors are drawn by the music and the dancing, but viewers will connect with these caretakers and will walk away with a greater appreciation for Texas music and small-town history, and maybe learn a little something about themselves.

Director / Producer Erik McCowan and Jeffrey Brown in attendance.. Q&A following the film.
