An unforgettable evening of entertainment, community, and hope benefitting the Family Abuse Center.

MEET THE CAST

ABOUT

It's a DAZZLING evening of community & DANCE, as Waco Stars & their Pro Partners bring the Best of Sitcoms to the stage in support of the Family Abuse Center on October 3rd. Family Abuse Center was founded in Waco, Texas in 1980 and now serves victims of domestic violence in six counties across Central Texas.

It will be an evening of entertainment as local celebrities perform in a dance competition to raise money and awareness for Family Abuse Center's mission. Some of Waco's biggest "STARS" have been teamed with professional dancers "PROS" and have begun training and preparing for an unforgettable show in October. These dancers rely on the community's support for a successful performance and a chance to win the competition on the big night. Your support also helps the staff and volunteers at Family Abuse Center to provide safety, education, and support for survivors of domestic violence.
