mekyriaInbetween wedding planning and house searching, FaKyMa made two public appearances in the Hague. The first one was for a cultural sunday in The Hague. Joyce had an injury with her knee so Yennie and me turned it into a duet. We were dancing in the city hall of The Hague, scheduled with other world dance performances of local teachers and performers. It was a lot of fun, never had a stage this big!! We messed up some parts of the choreography but other parts went smoothly. We are slowely becoming more and more of a group that moves as one.
We did a performance at The Regentes Theater last Sunday, because it was Open Monuments Day and the theater (former swimming pool) is a monument. We did three sets, two oriental and one folcloric (Tunesian and Melaya Leff). Here are some rather blurry iphone pictures:
Tunesian:
Tunesian is a lot of fun, with the extra costume items around the hips making us look like those ancient goddess statues. Big white wool belt, milya tucked in and a hipscarf underneath. It much resembles the European style of dress whith the bumroll, except that Tunesian dancers don't wear corsets and doing lots of twisting with the hips.
