I love these bellydance/theatre shows. I think they do them twice a year. They always select an overall theme and then several different numbers are choreographed by the various dancers and you get a show full of completely different dances around the theme. The music isn't live, but it's still usually something I would enjoy.
The Mermaid piece was first and very good. It was a mini-drama that you could tell the story without words. The costumes were great and they did a great job. This was the largest ensemble of the evening.
There were some solo dancers, some duos and some trios.
The ones I especially enjoyed were Knowledge of Good and Evil, the hiphop one. There were more, but I forgot them already. I found the list on-line and put them below.
It was a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to the next one.
