The Goddess Dancing presents: Circles and Cycles
Contemporary Belly Dance
Sat June 25 8pm - Green Street Studios
Cambridge, MA

BOSTON, MA – For the 12th year, local area belly dance choreographers, The Goddess Dancing, will showcase their original choreography that is created collaboratively using a style of choreographed improvisation that has become their signature. It's live and real and never the same way twice. "Circles and Cycles" will be at the Green Street Studios for one night only, June 25th, at 8pm. Belly dance rises from its folkloric roots and becomes contemporary
dance art.

Each dance is a thread of "Circles and Cycles". The `Sea Anemone' plays on the foundation shape of the show, the circle, a pattern that repeats itself in the choreography of many pieces, making the shape come alive. Representing the simplest of sea creatures, the dance creates an underwater scene that both lulls and soothes.

`Circle Dream' comments on the decidedly human condition of uncertainty. If we were unconscious of our actions perhaps we would not question so deeply why we exist. At some point, we realize we are not the first to ask our questions. Indeed, we awaken to the nature of those who have come before us and gain strength in the circle of community around us.

And where does this cycle lead us? To the end, of course. `Crone Dance' leaves us with the question: how will you confront the inevitable? Amusing, scary, and poignant, the dance honors old age and our preconceptions of it.

The Goddess Dancing has been performing contemporary belly dance for over a decade. They are also master teachers with their own instructional video and ongoing classes. The owners and principal dancers of the company are: Anita-Cristina Calcaterra, Cathy Moore, and Karen Uminski. www.thegoddessdancing.com

I had a total townie moment. I was leaving the dance studio tonight and when I got to the bottom of the stairs and opened the door to the cool air outside I saw a couple of guys were in front of the bar next door having a smoke. Who should one of said guys be, but a guy I used to hang out with in HS. He's actually the guy that the Waltham song "So Lonely" was based on in a way (that fateful song that got them a Boston Music Award http://d16901.u23.nimbit.com/bma/winners.2003.html). Heh.

In other news, here's some pics that one of the NY peeps took in Times Square. There are a few of Brian, a lot of the ship, and some good ones of Anthony Daniels (3P0), the R2, and the M&M characters:

Now I just need my Brian to come home so he can rub my sore calves (of course, my guess is he's pretty tired after standing in Times Square all day)!
