An excerpt from the larger show “A MidSummer Night“, this opening piece is named after the song for which it was choreographed by Moria Chappell with Bagoas on vocals and August Hoerr on accordion. “A MidSummer Night“ was a collaborative production based on themes of fantasy and dream-scape. 4 days prior to its performance, 3 primary choreographers (Moria Chappell, Victoria Teel, and Petite Jamilla) taught the entire show to a mixed level group of performers at Hard Raq Bellydance Festival. The dancers who auditioned were from various backgrounds: professional, semi-professional, and student dancers; yet all were united in devoting their shared passion for belly dance, world dance, and fusion dance. My deepest gratitude to all Chappell (Artistic Director) Performers: Moria Chappell, Bagoas, August Hoerr, Lisa Vega, Ilea Mcgee Rice, April Patrick, Victoria Valree, Janie Deroche, Sherry Merrit, Elizabeth Kerry, and Tina Zhao.
