Open Stage 8-22

  1. Nice move. I don't know about the music though.

  2. Good job-- I like how you discreetly kicked that piece of debris offstage. :) If I could suggest anything to make it better, I'd say you might work on polishing your transitions a little. In the opening bit, you had a couple of spots where there appeared to be a 'seam' instead of a fluid transition, like where you momentarily came to a set stance at one point. It seemed a little incongruous in such a flowing dance. And I don't know how well this would work, but maybe when you switch from the dual-scarves to the large black cloth, you could try ditching the scarves to the rear as you bend down to grab the black cloth in one motion? Hope that didn't sound too critical-- I'm really just picking nits in a lovely performance!

  3. Thanks for the suggestions. The chore was not fully fleshed out when I came to perform, but it's coming together now. And of course I never had such trouble with the veil in rehearsing at home. You should see the next performance. :D
