Happy Anniversary to Dramatic DJ's (aka DJ Frances Turk)!! Thirty two years in the industry and still having a blast!

Thank you so much to all those who have entrusted me as the entertainment portion of your special day, be it a wedding, anniversary, birthday, holiday party or sporting event, I've loved every single second and am excited for the years to come!

04/19/2021

Can't wait to get back to it! It's been so long and I miss you all!! ❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️

Prepping for a big virtual event! 🎶🎧🎤💃

I'm so excited to be able to delve into the DJ/entertainer side of my persona...... I've missed this part of my life so much 😭😭😭

I'm so happy to have the opportunity to still work on virtual events, and how I can play a role in them. This upcoming event is near and dear to my heart. Cancer survivors....🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰

This opportunity is such an incredible honor. Being a part of any/all celebration(s) is an incredible honor. I'm always so grateful to have been "the chosen one" to help celebrate a milestone, a birthday, wedding, anniversary, launch party, etc.

I can't thank you all enough for being at the helm of your entertainment needs. I always strive to have your guests say to you "that was the best *event* I have ever been to!". 🤩🤩

Please remember the entertainment industry. My company is Dramatic Entertainment. We want to bring back dance, and all the good feels that come with great friends and music.

Thank you again to all my past, present and future clients 🥰🙏🙏🙏🥰

What's your favorite song these days? 🎶🎶

Hello Everyone! We're still in the vortex of the unknown, but that doesn't mean that the music died!

I hope you have been able to turn on some tunes in your home or on your ipod or on your other magical musical devices and have a little dance on your own or with someone in your bubble :D.

It's been a devastating time for those of us in the entertainment industry, and also for those who had planned on events last year that had to cancel, reschedule, cancel and reschedule etc....while the conditions with this pandemic remain fluid.

Don't let this time get the better of you. DANCE like no one is watching. Let the music play. Dance the night away. And once we can celebrate again, let's make sure we tear up that dance floor like we've been waiting to do for so long!

What has been your favorite jamming song lately? I've been really getting into Ava Max's Kings & Queens song

a very Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones on this very crazy year.

I have not been able to do very many events this year which has made me quite sad as I enjoy my work immensely. That said, my wish to you is to turn up your favorite tune and dance like no one is watching! 🥰🥰🥰

We may not be able to be together in a social event in person kinda way, but things will change and I will be ready. 🤩

In the meantime, don't lose hope. Stay safe, be well, wear a mask and do your part to help us get back to a world where hugs and handshakes and dancing on a packed floor are all acceptable behaviours! 🎉🥳💃🕺🎶🎵🎧

Though this year was a tough one to get through, we did it. Stay strong. Till we meet again, I say seasons greetings and best wishes for a health happy and prosperous New year 💞

Can music heal our broken world?

The easy answer is YES. Music is a universal way to touch people in an uplifting way.

"And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.....I hope you dance"- Lee Ann Womack

Always dance. ♥️

Hello to the Facebook world! I just wanted to let you know that I will be doing a virtual DJ session tomorrow night as a test for Saturday. If you want to join in on a little dance party to celebrate some proms or graduations of any type, feel free to join me! I will try a few options: 1. Via facebook here,, 2. via instagram (that's my instagram page if you would like to follow) and via zoom, where I will post a link. I was thinking about 30-45 minutes on each platform to see how it goes. If you have a school or a household that would like to be a part of this (FOR FREE), let me know, and I'll gear it towards you! First comments get priority :) All are welcome to join!

Hello to those who have followed me at different race events through the years...I'm virtually announcing this Saturday for the "alone but together" run that should have been the "Band on the Run" race in Muskoka! You are able to do this event anywhere, including your treadmill! So have a look at the details, and know that I'll be there announcing for you and being a part of the race environment that I have so truly missed (as I'm sure many of you runners and walkers have felt when your race(s) have been cancelled). Here's the link to join on Saturday! :)

If this doesn't hit you in the feels......I dunno...All I can say is...it sure did for me

While we're all sitting at home, musical artists everywhere are turning it up with incredible performances, new songs and records, as well as fun online

Saw this posted on a Race directors blog. Feel free to read her blog post as it is really frightening times for Race directors all over the world:

https://medium.com//an-open-letter-to-my-run-community-from-the-home-desk-of-a-runner-and-canadian-race-director-1a6cbabe5731

As a race announcer, this affects me also quite heavily. As a DJ, more and more events are being cancelled and/or postponed to another date (hoping that not every event will pick the same weekend and also hoping that we will get through this by the rescheduled date...).

My heart hurts for all those affected. To plan an event such as your wedding, or 50th wedding anniversary, or to plan your very first half or full marathon and all that work seems to have just vanished.....we all have to come together and support each other at this time.

Support your local events when they come back. Help us all recover. We need you. We care about you. I sure do. And I hope that you will remember me when it comes to your upcoming events in the near future. This has cost me dearly, but I won't let this deter my passion for bringing smiles to your faces by playing the music you love and cheering you on when you cross the finish line.

Much love during these stressful times

Hi everyone. ***CHALLENGE FOR YOU!! (see below)***

I realize that this time is becoming so uncertain with which events will run this year and which ones are cancelled/rescheduled.

They are trying times for everyone. I certainly feel for you after all the work you have put in to organizing. It's not easy to not have much direction or clear information particularly when running an event where you need stats for sales, attendance, and other overhead measures.

If you booked with me and your event is in limbo, please know I'm doing all I can to help you and accommodating rescheduled dates as best as I can. If you have new dates, please let me know as soon as you can so that we have the new day "solidified" pending other constraints to the world.

Some people have already opted to have their wedding next year. This is also an option to consider....it would sure give you enough time to note if you two are meant to be together....for times like these where you are spending time in self isolation with each other. If you get through this, you're going to do well!! 🤪🤪🤪

In the meantime, I HAVE A CHALLENGE FOR YOU....turn up the music and do a little dance at home. Increase the endorphins (happy hormones) and let's make a new physical distancing / self isolation dance move that will be the 2020 dance craze gone viral!! Any takers on this challenge? The winner will get a gift card (I'm not sure where yet.... suggestions?)

Feel free to share this post to your friends who may be interested in setting a new dance trend!!! ,⭐⭐⭐🥰🥰🥰💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺💃🕺

I have to admit....I got choked up over this one! I would give up so much to have had an opportunity to dance with my dad on my wedding day. Unfortunately for me, he passed away before that day, but I did get to dance with him many times before that. He was my rock, he was my world. I miss him but I do enjoy watching every single bride dance with her father. It's such a beautiful moment

What would you do if Lenny Kravitz walked into the room while you were jammin' to his tunes? 🤪🤩🎧🕺💃

70's themed workout at Orangetheory Fitness Guelph. It was so much fun to play the tunes while the workout warriors killed it on the floor with an endurance themed workout and new signature moves. I got to do this workout later in the day where we practiced for our upcoming benchmark 12 minute run for distance.

So honored to be a part of events here.

Are you looking for a DJ that can do this for your Wedding, Birthday Party, Anniversary, Christmas Party, ETC.? Look no further! Give me a call and let's talk about how I can help make your day as super awesome as you are! :)

By the way, Happy Anniversary to Andrew and Krista, who got married on Star Wars day, May 4th, 2013. :)

This is me when I'm 97 FOR SURE! How about you? :)

I have had the honor of djing the Harris Mill schools dance-a-thon again this year and we broke out some brand new material that was such a blast! I'm waiting on my final group of kids this afternoon to round out a fantastic day. These kids are amazing! I'm here with Charlotte, one heck of an AWESOME parent volunteer as they were all pinnacle to my dance material! :)

02/08/2019

How many remember this lovely 80's diddy? :D

02/01/2019

Spinning in fitness classes? You bet! It was a blast and I cant thank Orangetheory Fitness Guelph enough for starting my journey into a whole new world! ♥♥♥

Guelph, Cambridge. ..who's next? I'm ready, let's go! :D

Had an AWESOME TIME with the members at tonight spinning the tunes for the evening classes with coach Adrian including the last class.....a super charged 90 minute class!! Keep burning!! Cambridge rocks! Great requests, great dancers too!! Haha

02/01/2019

A classic! ! :D

01/14/2019

Had a ball DJing at Orangetheory Fitness Guelph on Saturday and apparently the feedback was super positive! Who knows what the future holds at OTF Guelph and Dramatic Entertainment! WOOT WOOT! :)

I was working out in this class as well....all mellow yellow ;)

Love this organization, and the people are AWESOME! XO

Had a lot of fun djing at Orangetheory Fitness Guelph for their 2 year anniversary. The member requests really made the day even more special as they got to work out to their favorite beats! :)

Last song of night packed dance floor!

Great event last night as we celebrate a woman of such inspiration, Cindy Lunau! Cindy has been an amazing counselor advocating for our town and making all kinds of things happen. She has done so much for the community, for charities and is one of the most selfless and giving people. I was honored to dj her party giving thanks to all she has done. She did not win her seat back this past election, and that is a shame, but I don't think that will stop this shining light and spirit! :D

Such a fun race to announce this morning! :)

Working the first annual VIKING DASH with . 5k, 10k and very very brave 21k runners navigating the conditions of snow and rain and still smiling...lots dressed up in their best Viking impressions!! Love cheering them on at the finish line! :)

11/03/2018

DANG.....This album really made me happy and I wanted to share it with you. Check out their website and listen to their song "Hold Me To It". I ran into singer Mike Levy the other day and got my hands on this CD. I can't rave enough about this. AMAZING!!! Check it out for yourselves!

Play For The Cat creates groove-based, organic sounding dance music so you can "get up and dance".

Had so much fun at the trekortreat nightrun on Friday. I've announced this race for a few years now and really LOVE how much the participants get into it with their costumes. This race is fun for all ages! Just dress for the weather ;)

We've seen some pretty wicked costumes over the years, but these dinosaurs were among our favourites! What are you wearing to Trek or Treat this year?

10/14/2018

After djing a wedding last night, I got to sleep 3 hours and then head up to Niagara falls for the Niagara Falls international Marathon to play some fun music at the finish line. Who's going to be there? Say hi to me! :) Of course, the usual suspects are here with me as well, which makes my day even brighter! :* Dana and Les with Chris at the finish line. Woot woot!
