Step into the spotlight and dance into history with this vibrant, uplifting dance extravaganza.

This is — the ostentatious ball

About
Spotlight

Welcome to The Ostentatious Ball! A participatory dance event that invites everyone to step into the spotlight and dance into history.

Created by ZoieLogic Dance Theatre, this is a reimagined Regency-era ball with a bold, modern twist. Inspired by the formalities and dance cards of its time, The Ostentatious Ball transforms tradition into a giant, shared disco ball of joy.

The Ostentatious Ball is a low-barrier mass participation performance event celebrating identity, belonging and community. Find out all you need to know by downloading our booking pack.

Booking Pack

The Ostentatious Ball is available for booking in 2026. Contact Martina Bussi (Executive Director) for a chat about this. martina@zoielogic.co.uk
