Any ideas for a dance theme??
I'm thinking cookies in the shape of 🩰.
Pink lemonade (or blush grape juice for rabbis) and gumballs (in a little pink tulle drawstring bag)
Some kind of pink ribbon like candy (any out there?)

Any other ideas?

Also, what would my husband dress as? Can't imagine putting him in a tutu lol😂

Only anonymous cuz some ppl know who I am, and I'm not ready to give away our theme yet Wink

could you dress dh as a nutcracker like nutcracker ballet? then nuts in a shell could be an option too?

(pardon any potential problems I might be missing, just brainstorming "out loud")

I once had a (male) guest on Purim dressed as a ballerina with tights tutu and all. We never laughed harder

Your DH could dress up like a tap dancer , or really any other style dancer such as hip hop etc. , or you and him could dress like ball room dance partners.

Maybe she wants to take advantage of the October-December sales.

Op are kids involved? Did they already decide on this as a theme?

5.5 yr old daughter who's all for the theme, and baby girl in the way iyh, a couple months before purim- that's why I'd like to start sketching a plan now. And to catch sales! Dw though, not gonna really start heavy planning till right after chanukah. Just wanted more ideas so I can have what to choose from!

Love your theme!!
There's a lot you can work with - dance accessories like pom poms, musical notes, dress up things like feathers and sparkly necklaces. Love the ballet shoes idea.
It's never too early to think of a theme! Every
Purim, I try to think of a theme for next year while I'm still in the "mode" and inspired by other people's cute ideas.

Dress your husband as Simon Cowell and have the dancers be AGT contestants

So cute! I just don't think too many ppl we're giving to would get that though. In general very mixed community- we are regular frum/balabatish/ a bit more open minded, but our friends happen to be on the more yeshivish end. I'm leaning more toward the nutcracker idea though! I feel like that's something more people may know about?
