Island Spice Dance Co. will present an international dance cabaret and dinner show on Saturday, March 18,  from 7 to 9 p.m. at The Edible in Kailua-Kona.

Postcard Productions will present the Big Island’s new professional international dance company’s debut production in an evening of dance entertainment, international music and Middle Eastern/French cuisine.

Sojourn to the dazzling cabaret stage of the Moulin Rouge in Paris, the glamorous nightclubs alongside the Pyramids in Cairo, and a vivacious carnival celebration in Rio de Janeiro—no passport required…

The show includes three unique dance performance sets punctuated by international music and open dancing, so you, too, can let your feet take you away.

The chefs at Edible World Institute bring you a menu infused with French and Middle Eastern specialties.
