Check out New Canaan High School's presentation of Stepping Out starting on Thursday, "an off beat British play that revolves around a weekly tap class. The range of characters in the class and their diverse tapping abilities makes for a most unusual and fun show," according to this New Canaan Patch listing. Stepping Out runs November 21, 22, and 23 at 7:30 pm on the NCHS stage. Tickets are available online at newcanaanhighschooltheatre.com
