Feel Quite Uplifted

[DaisyNonna]

Anybody else enjoy Dirty Dancing? The film, that is.

Sorry you guys but Fred and Eleanor have all your favourites beat. This is only part of the Begin the Beguine sequence, I urge you to check it out in full!
The music is divine (adore Cole Porter) and the dancing sublime. Enjoy!

Didn't have you pegged as a fan of the musicals Tony

[tonyav]

Only some, nungate. I've put them up for Daisy who is a fan of musicals.

Coming over to mamya's disco now, nungate.

When I was teaching at a comprehensive school each year we produced a Shakespeare play and a Musical including The Wizard of Oz, Dracula Spectacular, Grease, Camelot, Oliver and The Fiddler on the Roof. There were also straight plays by the pupils. The staff acted in one play a year and joined with the pupils to act and produce a Pantomime each Christmas.

We didn't do much in the way of drama and such at our school - though I did get to play Lucius, the boy servant of Brutus in Julius Caesar - our teacher's reasoning was that in Shakespeare's time women's roles were played by boys so she was of the opinion that why shouldn't girls play the boys roles. Besides there aren't too many female roles in Julius Caesar not that there were too many girls left in our class by that time (they left!)

[tonyav]

At school I'm afraid that I played the fool :-(

[DaisyNonna]

I went to an all girls school. Drama was definitely not on the curriculum but surprisingly enough by the time I gwas in the Sixth form, dance was. I got to die dramatically in Slaughter on Tenth Avenue.

[nungate]

Slaughter on 10th Avenue - classic!

[DaisyNonna]

Still gives me nightmares. Hadv to throw myself off the stage into the well of the hall, face down, to be caught by four other girls.
Though I loved the off the shoulder red dress, split to the thigh on one side
What seventeen year old girl wouldn't?

[tonyav]

Well I do try Daisy, honest lol.
