Tuesday evening dances are open to all ages at the Kent Senior Activity Center, 600 E. Smith St.

Cover charge is only $4 at the door for all ages, dancers and listeners.

Performing acts include:

• The Kings of Swing are volunteer entertainers who live as far away as Bremerton, Puyallup, Everett and (at one time) North Bend. They were the featured orchestra when Boeing rolled out the new 787 on the tarmac in Everett back in 2007.  They are world-class musicians and have toured around the world.

• Randy Litch and Andy Burnett are one-man-bands who are extraordinary musicians doing live vocals and guitar with pre-set electronic background accompaniment.  Litch does a variety of music including ballroom, rock, country, line dance and even polkas.  Burnett does mostly rock classics and soft rock, as well as some old-fashioned rock ‘n roll favorites.

Program schedule:

• First Tuesday: 17-member Big Band Kings of Swing, 7:45 to 9:30 p.m. Refreshments by the Lakeshore or Radcliffe Place

• Second Tuesday: Litch, ballroom dance music, 7:30-9:30 p.m. Refreshments by the Weatherly

• Third Tuesday: Burnett, rock ‘n roll music, 7:30-9:30 p.m. Refreshments by Stafford Suites
