Norfolk history retold through sea tales

The OV Sea Hags will hold an educational event at the Ocean View Beach Park in Norfolk this October.

The Ocean View Witch Walk is a program where people can learn about local legends and historical stories about the Chesapeake Bay. The performers will present the information alongside music and choreographed dances. People can expect to hear familiar songs like Rock You Like a Hurricane and I’m Still Standing. Guests will listen to stories about the Witch of Pungo, freedom seekers, and the Great Tempest. The event will also include the OV Sea Hags’ signature German broom dance.

The OV Sea Hags are a dance troupe that uses entertaining performances to spread joy and support local causes. The group takes inspiration from the German Wolfshäger Hexenbrut tradition. The OV Sea Hags hold beachside performances and have participated in charity events and local parades. People can book the dance troupe for business collabs and private gatherings. The group even offers broom dance classes.

The presentation and live dance performance will be held on Saturday, October 17 from 6:00 pm to 7:45 pm. There is no cost or registration needed to see the OV Sea Hags perform, although people can support the troupe with donations or sign up to join the group themselves. Those who give educational performances like this may use flyer printing to help their events be noticed by more consumers.
