Local stars will shine on the Majestic stage on Fri., Jan. 13 at 7 p.m. during Dancing with the Local Stars presented by WellSpan Health.
The annual event is a fundraiser for the YWCA Gettysburg & Adams County and Adams County Arts Council. Local stars have worked with professional choreographers for months to learn two dances.

Ernie’s Texas Lunch Owner Ernie Kranias, Professional Dancer Dawn Glass, and Majestic Theater Founding Executive Director Jeffrey Gabel will provide color commentary as judges but the audience will decide the winner. Mark Purdy, former YWCA coordinator of special events and public relations, will emcee the event.
Local tap dancers “The Sequined Sirens,” under the direction of Vanessa Rice, and The Edge Dance Complex Performing Company, under the direction of Brittany Swartz, are featured guests.
