Our ballroom studio, That's Dancing, had their Winter Showcase back in December. We performed two numbers in a delightfully full schedule.
Our first dance wasn't until the second act. We danced a tango and waltz comedy routine to I Can't Tell a Waltz from a Tango by Patti Page. My wife was the waltz advocate while I wanted to do the tango, as you can see in the video...
Nice swish to the skirt!
Interpretive stillness?
The "interpretive stillness" line is an ongoing gag with our instructor, encouraging her to make the choreography less complicated. The rose is a fake. For some reason, it has fake thorns. That was more desirable than the other fake roses I saw in the store that had petals going brown. Too much realism, people!
Our second routine was in the third act (we were the fourth couple to dance!). We had a fun East Coast Swing dance to "Red Light" by Indigo Swing. This performance was a more typical dance routine.
Nicely spun!
Wait, where am I?
Because of the song name, I acquired a light-up bowtie. It does a variety of colors and even flashing patterns. If that is not amazing enough, it also has a usb port to recharge the battery! I wonder if I can upload other patterns to it?
At the end, they gave out certificates of accomplishment and awards, along with announcing the theme for the Summer Showcase--Elton John. We have already picked out songs.
