The Bay Area English Regency Dance Society (www.baers.org) Presents: The Great Regency Shipwreck Ball, (or "Regency Survivor")
We can't get off this island, so we might as well entertain ourselves! Caller Alan Winston with The Divertimento Dance Orchestra Saturday June 21, 2008 8:00-11:30pm Arlington Church (52 Arlington Ave, Kensington, CA) The Divertimento Orchestra will provide jolly music. The marooned elite, in any remaining finery, are invited to dance arm-in-arm with the ships' captain and crew. Meet up at 8PM sharp aboard the ruins for dance, drink and good company! Come as you are, whether Passenger, Pirate, Native, Merfolk or member of Her Majesty's Royal Navy. If your wardrobe was relocated to Davy Jones' Locker during the fateful storm, fashion yourself new togs from local flora (grass skirts are all the rage among the natives!). We've made peace with the island inhabitants and the merfolk in the bay, so we will feast with them on seafood, fresh fruits, springwater and provisions salvaged from the hold. The contribution of exotic new delicacies from forays inland are welcome - as long as you have already tried them first. Subscriptions are $20 at the door, $15 in advance. $2 discount for GBACG, BACDS, and COYOTE/SFCOP members. Advance mail registrations must be received by us no later than June 18th. Costumes admired but not required. All dances taught during the ball. No partner required.
