Cantina!

[dancerjodi]

Its official. I'll be reprising my Cantina dance, this time with a modified (less accurate) costume at Arisia. After the student show in the summer of 2005 Brian and I decided to toss the one I wore for that performance, assuming I'd never wear it again. Heh! I'll be with the group performing on that Saturday night in some smallish room at 5:00 PM.

I need to watch the video a couple of times to refresh my memory of the choreograpy (its really simple, a lot of it Charlston inspired) and I'll need to make a new cut of the song, since Brian deleted my old one.

I totally threw this costume together tonight - its amazing the stuff you can find at TJ Maxx and Target when you really need to be creative! :) I had my old veil, a gold coin belt and some arm bracelets. Throw in a gold bathing suit top, burgandy velvet yoga pants and a "chain" for my neck (a scarily similar belt on clearance for $9) and you have a more modern version of Slave Leia. :)

Wow, nice improvising!

I'm debating whether I want to go to Arisia I'm still hobbling around on my post-op leg so I wouldn't make great company for my friends who are going.

I hope you and Brian have a great time! ...Now, do dancers also say 'break a leg' or do you just say good luck?

Dancers do also say "break a leg". :)

Ooh, that just seems so much more dark than when Actors say it.
