[SCA-BMDL] LORDS (AND LADIES) OF THE DANCE

[Loujaue McPherson]

LORDS (AND LADIES) OF THE DANCE

The 3 competitive dances will be taught throughout the day so everyone has
a chance to learn them



A ball prep class (to teach the dances to be done at the ball) will be
taught from 3-5p.  Anyone can ask Arlee or me to teach the ball dances
anytime during the day, if we are available



The dance competition will begin after all other activities have been
completed



Dance partners from the attending populace for the competitors may be
needed and would be appreciated



The dance competition will be judged by all Gentles attending the
competition by acclaim (applause meter)



There will be a ball immediately following the dance competition,
consisting of 3-4 sets of 5 dances each (nothing I’ve seen has said there
will be a ball in addition to the dancing competition)



Several members of the debatable consort will provide live music for both
the dance competition and the ball



For those of you who want to prepare beforehand for the competition/ball,
here is the set list our musicians will play:
