Christmas Showgirl gigs

During the month of December I was very busy with the Nobel peace prize concert and also some smaller scale dance gigs.

These were my favourite as I got to wear some lovely costumes. The gigs took place mostly around the south west and were with a dance group called The Flaming Feathers

The dance genres that I performed with these fab girls were Samba, Charlston, Show girl and burlesque.

Each show had a different number of girls depending on the clients requirement, ranging from 2-5. (More dancers are available)

Performing at these shows are a lot  different then performing at big events. I actually find these more terrifying for some reason. I guess its the closeness of the audience and the fact that you can see everyones faces rather than the bright lights of the arena.

One of the nights I didn't feel well but I carried on regardless as it would have been too complicated to rearrange the transitions. That's show business folks!

I have included a couple of the photos we had taken below. Enjoy!
