Unleash Your Inner Zombie in Redmond
Classes begin Sept. 21 to learn the "Thriller" dance so you can join a cadre of Zombies Oct. 26 to Thrill the World at Redmond Town Center

For the past four years, every October, Zombies of all ages have gathered at Redmond Town Center, laid down in the streets โplaying deadโ, then slowly gotten up (to the beat ofย Michael Jacksonโs โThrillerโ song), and began a world-wide Flash Mob dance simulcast with other โThrill the Worldโ locations such as โ London, Sydney, Tokyo, Helsinki, New York, and Brazil.
The event this year is October 26 โ at exactly 2pm.ย You can either sit on the sidelines and watch the Zombies โฆ or become one.
That means learning Michael Jacksonโs โThrillerโ Dance โ classes begin September 21st at the Redmond Senior Center.ย And yes, there is a fee to learn this Dance โ with a portion of the proceeds going to help SecondStory Repertory, a 501(c)3 non-profit theater. Two-hour dance workshops (for ages 8 to 80) are $5.00. It takes at least two classes to learn how to dance like a Zombie.ย If you wanna be a Zombie, it takes commitment!
