This year’s event – The Dream Role Album – will give clients the chance to sing their favorite songs, such as Eye of the Tiger, Dancing Queen, Hound Dog, I Want it That Way, and more. In addition to individual numbers, clients will engage in large group numbers such as Macarena, YMCA, Cha Cha Slide, Footloose, and more.
