Venus Uprising Fantasy Bellydance @ RS Lounge 11/13/10

I messed up the time, so I was only able to see the 2nd act.  My friend was in the 1st act, but I also loved the last time I saw this troupe's Tarot production, so I was looking forward to all of it.  What I saw was excellent and well worth it.  My favorite was a solo performance of the Voodoo Queen.  I'm sure you never would have guessed that!

Each piece was excellent.  There were 3 solo performances.  A very cool ensemble all in black was intriguing. Sara Skinner and her husband did an awesome piece where her husband played mandolin and she was a bitchy waitress.  There was also a fun piece with 3 women doing that funkier style.

I have to figure out how to find out about the annual show even if Val isn't in it ...
