While it sounds like a joke, the NYC Cabaret Law is very real and has for the last several years adversely affected our city's economy, culture and community. LEGALIZE DANCING NYC, an umbrella group of pro-dance people and organizations, exists because it really IS illegal to dance in New York City. We assert that dancing is a fundamental right that need not be regulated by government and that a flourishing dance culture is good for the NYC economy and culture. Together we can work to repeal these antiquated laws and begin to rebuild New York one joyous step at a time. Join Us!
