If you were worried you’d have to capture sugarplum fairies to fulfill your dream of swimming through tulle, you’ll be relieved to learn of Danny’s Warehouse, where, turning a corner, you find yourself face-to-face with a pile of tutus taller than you are. Danny’s also sells anything dance-related, and everything is less than $10: leotards, tights, sports bras, dance pants, dance shorts, skorts, skirts, costumes, wraps and shoes — ballet, jazz, tap, ballroom and zumba! Feeling spirited? Danny’s even has you covered for cheer and praise dancing. Since it deals in overstocks and samples, the selection here is always changing. When we visited, it even had triathlon suits. It is a warehouse, so be prepared to do some digging. That said, the staff is incredibly friendly. And if you’ve got some time and optimism, enter the $1 room and leave with a tutu bargain that makes you feel like you’re dancing on air.
