MONDAY - Tonight, Nov. 22 & 29. Social dancing and practica at Jacobs Fine Dining, 2501 McHenry. No fee, but you can order food or drink off the menu. The MTV filming of a MADE episode, following a young woman who wants to be a Latin dancer, is postponed to Nov. 29 or Dec. 6. MADE, a reality/documentary style series, is in its 11th season. A student has a goal/dream, gets a coach and trains. MTV wants to bring her to Monday tango night at Jacobs and film her visit. They use one small hand held camera without wires or set up lights. They require signing a release to appear on camera. MTV will shoot around the camera-shy. It could be a fun evening in a good place to practice class material.
