Dance, Dance, Revolution

Greenville Senior High School’s gymnasium turned into a dance floor late Saturday night. The annual Homecoming dance was lively as usual, perhaps livelier thanks to the win that the Greenwave took on Friday’s Homecoming game. 

The theme centered around the main fairy tale that had circled about the schools- Wonderland. Upon walking into the gymnasium late Saturday night, it was as if you had just stepped into Alice in Wonderland’s own little story. 

While the White Rabbit waited at the front door, a covered entrance was adorned with icons such as pocket watches. Inside, strands of twinkle lights hung from the rafters, surrounded the tables and decorations. The Mad Hatter could be found waiting at the entrance, or the Cheshire cat on the back wall. The Suits of Playing Cards were also “patrolling” around the stage. A photo booth, where one could pose as the Red Queen, was also set up. 

And of course- the floor had been covered with tarp and mats for a better experience dancing. Soon, even that was invisible with the mass of swaying bodies that filled the room shortly after eight o’ clock. 

Homecoming- it’s a long-standing tradition that even today, hasn’t failed to lose its wonder.
