Reproducing the clothing and refreshments, reconstructing specific dances, and applying nineteenth century etiquette rules to twenty-first century situations. It's all part of bringing history from the printed page into three dimensions.

Welcome
Welcome to the Nineteenth Century Ballroom! Here you will find information about balls in the past and tips about recreating them in the present from someone who does just that. I have been a member of the Commonwealth Vintage Dancers for the last 25 years, as a dancer, costume coordinator and now co-director. I have researched the dances, the etiquette, the costumes, food and decorations. I look forward to sharing what I have learned. You are always welcome at one of our balls in the Boston area, but if you live too far away, I invite you to attend through this blog.
