Drive by The Cars, Spellbound, Pulsations Nightclub, Glen Mills, PA
My first gig as a Professional dancer was at The Encore Dinner Theater in 1984, Production Spellbound, in Glenn Mills, PA.
After the last performance at 10 pm, it would one hour later, turn into Pulsations Nightclub.
The Pulsations Dancers would then perform.
Remembering Drive by the Cars as Rex, who is a Senior Lecturer, Theater Arts, @ The University of the Arts, Philadelphia, choreographed a production that will forever live in my mind. They used the same stage as the Spellbound Dancers. The Encore Dinner theater held 850 people for dinner. Pulsations, well lets say there was reckless abandonment.
At midnight the spaceship would make its way from the ceiling in this 3-story nightclub and land on the dance floor. The robot, Pulsar was in a glass enclosed chamber. The robot would come out, talk, and interact with the crowd. The pumping bass speakers, risers, and state of the art lighting were never duplicated at any nightclub I have ever hung out in. When you are a professional dancer and it off time, enter a nightclub, look out dance floor. Canada to Bermuda, Las Vegas to New Orleans, Norway to Denmark, The City of Angels to New York City. St. Thomas to Puerto Rico. You name it, was cutting edge in the after dark industry, way ahead of its time. Thanks to Barry, Hey, where are you now Barry? You left Taylors in Cherry Hill, to go to Philly, Egypt or Shampoo Maybe, lost tract of your expertise.
I do not want to sound redundant, it was the best club in Philly area bar none!

Thank you the power of the world wide web. Found Pulsar entertaining the crowd.
When I would get done my two performances one @ 1:30PM and the other @ 8PM, ( dark on Mondays, I would sometimes chill out in Pulsation if my energy still needed and outlet. I believe they had 2-4 DJ spinning vinyls back then.
Wow, I got a video of Pulsar. The spaceship was also incorporated in Spellbound. The Illusionist Carlton and Co would enter from it.
Pulsations was the Best. I left my mark on the dance floor into the wee hours of the morning.
Maybe someone should start a Reunion. It touched so many ppl lives back in the 80’s.
Sounds like is was the place to be!
Muse, it was awesome place. Went from a 850 seat Dinner theater to a cutting edge nightclub. It was my first gig as a professional Dancer
Spellbound? ring a bell, 1984?
