Despite the conspiring fates (you know it's going to be a good performance when the previous week's rehearsal involves a car fire outside the club), Raqs Gothique III went off pretty much without a hitch!

Thank you to the ladies of Mahira Tribe, who were lovely China dolls!

Thanks you to the ladies of Coveilance project, who treated us to a dagger solo dance and one of their large intricate group choreographies!

Thank you to Haifa, who wowed all with her grace and flowing to the Cruxshadows!

Thank you to Denise, who recorded it all!

Thank you to all of you who were able to make it out! (and from the frat-boy drunken stupidity I saw on nearby South Street, I know this was not an easy task to navigate the area)

And thank you to my troupemates for performing beautifully as always, and helping put this event together!

Hurrah!

Pictures will be forthcoming!

    The show was awesome, but should we incorporate the Gothic dance stomp left, stomp right, stomp left, stomp right? LOL

      It was great to see all the other troupes perform and to get to know everyone better. I had soooo much fun and my husband is appreciative of the pictures he's seen and would happily check out any other pics there might be.

      Wonderful time Ak-Ana, and thanks for dragging my arse around Philly. :) I'm such a country bumpkin!!

      To all of the performers, Thanks for making this (in my opinion anyway) The best Raqs Gothique yet! I guess the 3rd time really is da charm!
      All of the ladies performed beautifully -- it was a real pleasure to see you all and make a few new friends!
      Thanks again to Denise and Bethany for immortalizing it in Digital!
      I have a few pix to post that Bethany took on my camera as well
      Hopefully we'll see you all again on April 29th! - but before then would be even bettah!
      xoxox!
