About this event

Halloween Costume Ball with Terry Doyle & Toss the Possum Terry Doyle, contra dance caller Contra dance caller Terry Doyle brings a lively, generous spirit to the hall, combining clear instruction with the good timing and humor that help dancers relax, connect, and enjoy the music. Her calling is welcoming to newcomers without slowing the energy of the evening, and experienced dancers appreciate the smooth flow she brings to each dance. Whether guiding a full floor through the basics or shaping the momentum of a high-energy set, Terry helps create the friendly, community-centered atmosphere that makes contra dancing such a pleasure. Toss the Possum is: Rob Zisette: Fiddle, percussion, and vocals Laura Zisette: Keyboard Toss the Possum brings the drive, warmth, and good humor that make a contra dance floor come alive. Based in Blacksburg, Virginia, and playing contra dances since 2004, this family-rooted band blends fiddle, keyboard, rhythm, and danceable traditional energy into music that is lively, grounded, and easy to move to.
