THE PARTY A record-breaking 670 guests attended River North Dance Chicago’s (RNDC) annual benefit, Tour de Force, in celebration of the company’s 22nd season. Following a jaw-dropping RNDC performance—which included the company premiere of “SUPER STRAIGHT is coming down” by renowned choreographer Daniel Ezralow—at the Harris Theater for Music and Dance, festivities continued at the Hilton Chicago with dinner and dancing to the Michael Lerich Orchestra. THE SCENE The hotel dazzled in décor by Erin Patrick Events, with tables draped by BBJ Linen, and topped off with centerpieces from Topiarius Urban Garden and Floral Design. The evening raised $340,000 to support the company. Photos by Jennifer Girard Photography
