Hello knowledgeable and experienced folks

Do you have any sense of how long that ½ hey for four in couples in promenade 
position should take? I know in "Cranky Ingenuity" the couple DSD is to take 8 
counts but it is always tight and really should take 10 and steals from the 
individual DSD.

Any ideas? Comments on this choreography?

Title: 4am
Formation: double contra; aka 4-face-4; aka Mescolanza
A1: Lines forward and back (8); neighbor (directly in front of you) DSD (8)
A2: Neighbor balance and swing; end swing in promenade position facing partner 
(16)
B1: As couples, ½ hey for four, start passing right shoulder (16). When you are 
at the end of the line of the hey, turn individually (a la Gay Gordons) rather 
than as a couple [if extra time, partner Right shoulder round]
B2: Partner balance and swing (16)

Notes: This dance is a riff on a 'lost' Ron Buchanan square called 2am; named 
after when he woke up in the middle of the night to write the square. However, 
my version of the dance was composed at 10pm immediately prior to going to 
sleep.
