I can tell this club was Omar Khyams. I'd recognize that stage anywhere. I worked there a while in the mid 80's. The lighting in the floor was so annoying. But what a fantastic orchestra. Mona was the star attraction and will always be my favorite mentor!.......Mish Mish
@alaskamish Hi there. Luck you! This must have been an amazing time to be in London. I'm curious. Do you recall where was the venue located by any chance?! Thanks.
Hi.........Yes it was a great time and was the highlight of my career of performing and making a living from this wonderful art for 25yrs. Omar Khayyam was at a place called Mitre House, 177 Regent St. in London.
It was actually several levels below street level.
@TheCaroVan Most definitely! I'm afraid her style will probably never be appreciated for what it is by a general audience- but she is a true master. I love her dancing.
shes amazing. love her!! thanks for posting ;)

@rubylotus Her style won't be appreciated because we dont teach it anymore or in the firstplace. A sad sad thing

@baadrobot Oh, so true.... I say bring it back. SO much is already lost in translation. We should preserve what we can.
