Raqs Gothique Steampunk: SerpentSkirt @ Euchronia, 2008: Act III {of 3}

In 2008 Wildilocks created the Years End ball Euchronia - the theme was indeed Steam-Punk, and Ma'isah with her troupe SerpentSkirt took it on as a challenge to create a full 15 minute dark fusion steam punk belly dance mini play in three parts....

(nb: sadly Act II {of 3} is a corrupted file, so we can only show you Act I and Act III. As soon as we have a viable copy of Act II we will update our YouTube channel!)
Choreography by Ma'isah.

New Years Eve 1908 (at the sideshow)

Act III) "The Showgirls of the Sideshow"
(song Dvie Guitary - Balatonia Gypsy Orchestra)
The script:
The Hoochie Coochie tent...four showgirls try to outdo each other, and moreover upstage the star!
The characters are the "Lush", the "Vamp", the "Diva" and the "Star". The poor "Star" thinks she is the headliner but can't get her back up dancers to behave - and they clearly have no respect for her either...mayhem ensues...


To see the complete show check out http://raqsgothique.com/video.html
NB: This was filmed as a courtesy and a gift by the organisers and not as a professional dance production video, so it is a little dark (and there is an awesome Mohawk with cogs in shot occasionally) nonetheless we are thrilled to have it for you.

post script: this was one of the last gigs we did as SerpentSkirt with this line up - the troupe has dissolved to may way for Elysium. For more on SerpentSkirt Alumni please check out http://raqsgothique.com/serpentskirt.html
