Hi Michael, I like the simplicity/symmetry of this composition. I'll share a caution I learned in trying similar dances: in practice, the dancers need extended prompting or some other way to know which "repeat" is different.
In your dance, the directional difference in the B2 G&T otherwise follows an identical pattern as in the A1. Dancers may have great difficulty remembering which direction the G&T is to go. Fortunately, in this dance one could give the walk though hint "all swings happen on the Gents' home side". Maybe that will be enough for a critical mass to help guide others without requiring extended calling.
