Thrill the World 2008: Los Angeles does the Thriller Dance

by Lisa Mouse on October 16, 2008


The Los Angeles Chapter of Thrill the World will be performing the Thriller dance at Hollywood & Highland on October 25th. This is part of a worldwide movement to get as many citizens of planet earth as possible to perform the Thriller dance all at once. This will be a historic and newsworthy moment that can be a part of your lifestory BUT, there is a catch. You cannot just show up and wing it by doing “zombie arms”, you need to attend practice sessions, and there is a full schedule as follows:

Sat Oct 18th: Hollywood@ Pan Pacific Regional Park. 11am-3pm
Ogden & Romaine, WeHo 90046

Sun Oct 19th: South Bay
@ Pollywog Park. 12pm-2pm

Wed Oct 22nd: Santa Monica

2200 Virginia Ave, Santa Monica, CA

Fri Oct 24th: Hollywood *FINAL PRACTICE!
@ Pan Pacific Regional Park. 5pm-7pm (we may stay later)
7600 Beverly Blvd, Los Angeles, CA

That’s right, this is serious! Anyone/Everyone/All ages Welcome! Free! Gratis! If you come, we’ll teach you how to do the dance! It takes 2-3 practices to learn the dance, so there are practices scheduled throughout September & October. Locations will rotate so it will be in your neck of the woods at least twice. When you come to a practice, make sure to write down our phone numbers so you can call us if you can’t find us or need more info about the event!
