Right hands across...

English Country dance and American Contra dance for all, with a quick pot-luck dessert in between!

English Country dancing hails from the 17th to 18th century, in the days of the courts.
Think of the 'Jane Austen' era, as portrayed in recent films, Emma, Pride and Prejudice.
Although many of the dances are collected from that era, there are modern compositions too,
drawn from an active community of dancer/choreographers.

Contra dancing ( from the French 'contre': opposite ) is more similar to American square,
though set formation is longways ( a line men opposite or 'contre' a line of women ), not square.
Both styles of dance are socially interactive: you dance with your partner, and others, as the
music and figures flow along.

Although both styles of dance are done with couples, it's best for newcomers to dance with
experienced dancers, to quickly get the hang of things. So, if you have a partner, bring them
along, but a partner isn't required. And, if you do have a partner... you'll probably not be
dancing more than 1 or 2 dances with them in the evening, although you will dance with them
along the progression of the dances, for a moment.

All of the figures are taught; all of the dances are walked-through.

Read more about it on the web site!

$40 for the season; contact Rossland Recreation on 250-362-7396... or $5 drop-in.

Come on out and have a little fun!

THE CLAY BIRD - Kaslo   

   

When:          March 26, 2010 - 7:30 pm

Where:       The Langham Theatre, Kaslo

Poignant, touching and controversal...

Set against the backdrop of the turbulent period in the late 1960s leading up to Bangladesh's independence from Pakistan, The Clay Bird tells the story of a family torn apart by religion and war. Anu, a shy young boy from rural East Pakistan (Bangladesh, as it is now known) is sent away by his father Kazi, an orthodox Muslim, to a Madrasah - or Islamic- school. Far from his family and the warmth of his region's Hindu festivities, Anu struggles to adapt to the school's harsh monastic life.

As the political divisions in the country intensify, an increasing split develops between moderate and extremist forces within the Madrasah. Back in the village, these same tensions create a growing divide between the stubborn but confused Kazi and his increasingly independent wife, Ayesha.

Touching upon themes of religious tolerance, cultural diversity, and the complexity of Islam, The Clay Bird has universal relevance in a crisis-ridden world.

"Easily one of the finest pictures of this year or any other!" - Elvis Mitchell, New York Times
