Dancing on the Valentine was started by Jenny George, who at 12 years-old was diagnosed with Leukemia and told that she would never have children and would most likely not live longer than a month.

Not only is she alive and healthy years later, but she is a dedicated mother and takes her birthday every year (which is Valentine's Day) to organize this benefit show for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
The 21+ show starts at 8pm on February 9th. Tickets are $15, and you can get them here.
