[Artemisia] Uprising Ball

[Catriona A. Morganosa]

Ah, but you see, I don’t KNOW any of the dances suggested except Gelosia,
which is in the list. It doesn't matter if it's period if I've never seen
it, never heard of it, never heard the music, and didn't even know where to
go to find this allegedly "fun" series of dances, less than a week before
the event?

What threatening to teach HotW and Korabushka DOES accomplish is it brings
folks like yourselves out of the 15th Century stonework  to run the ball,
since you have the music, you have the know how, you have the research and
you have the experience with both dancing and teaching said fabulous dances.
All I have are Playfords which are not period, SCA creations and those
terrible, tragic double progressive dances. Naughty me. Perhaps I should be
spanked with a copy of Arbeau's?

See, I'm not the dance Laurel here, my sweet, sweet darlings. I'm a Pelican.
A simple, unassuming, never-an-insidious-plotter, totally on the up and up
Service Technician for the SCA. I mean, really! How could I be expected to
run a Grand Ball with an arsenal of dances like Korabushka ad Hole in the
Wall? But, when no one else volunteers, it is in my very nature, as well as
my fancy scrolly thing on the wall in my living room,  that I need to take
on this duty.

*sigh... blink blink blink*

You know you're entering a bachelor pad when the tenant prefaces the
appearance, not with "It's the maid's day off," but with "Don't pet the fur
in the corner. It's not an animal."
