(I know it is long, but please read details for performing)
Hello Everyone,
It's that time of the year again..India Nite preparations have arrived.
April 23, 2000 is the scheduled date in the MU Ballroom.
We would like to explain this years India Nite Theme to you. We would
like to have two MC's going on an imaginary train ride through all of the
states in India. They will stop at particular states, like Punjab explain
a little about Punjab and then go into a typical dance, song or skit from
that area. We want to represent as many states as we can like Kashmir,
UP, Gujrat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Bengal, on and on.
What we are asking from YOU is that you submit your group performances AND
state you're representing by March 24, 2000. That way we have four weeks
to prepare for other areas like booklets before 4-23-00. We are really
hoping to get one dance, song, OR skit for each state or as many as we can
represent.
It will be on a first come first serve basis but also the IA
committee will first have to evaluate each submittal so we can diversify
and not have too much of the same thing...only two dancers performing,
only one state having too much emphasis, only film song being represented.
WE don't want the same thing. We would like to evaluate and approve your
submital for around 5 minute performances(give or take a few). Maybe even
change the states being represented around.
Our third part of the show will be the famous fashion show, only this
year it will be a little different. We want to represent all the
different styles of marriage dress for man and woman in various, beautiful
colors. Do show us your interest in this area as well.
Please, submit your ideas as soon as possible way before March 24, 2000
and we will get back to you. Deadlines may change to an earlier date.
Thank you,
Sarika Patel
IA President
PS. Keep in mind we need all the volunteers possible for April 23rd like
in the past.
