Evening Magazine - KPIX Dance Party Reunion (2004)

KPIX Evening Magazine report from July 31st 2004 featuring a reunion at the United Irish Cultural Center in San Francisco for what was the Bay Area's No.1 daytime TV show KPIX's Dance Party, which ran from 1959-1963 and was hosted by Dick Stewart. There are scenes of former Dance Party regulars (who came from Bay Area high schools) dancing, being interviewed and welcoming Dick Stewart and his wife Anne Randall (nee Barbara Burrus) to the celebration. Stewart makes a speech on-stage in which he begins: "It's really great to see you all. Don't cry, don't cry!" and then jokes: "But it's really great to see anybody, you know, when you get to be my age!" Dance Party regulars seen on-camera include: Sandy Lee; Joanna Panganiban; Joey Panganiban; Paul Mooney; Cherie Mauradian; Don Camp and Shari Langlois. This report was produced (and preserved) by James Reid. Opening graphic designed by Carrie Hawks.
