Album: 10-28 Lindyshock

     Album:2009:10-14 Europe Teaching:10-28 Lindyshock

Lindyshock was amazing.

One of the biggest camps in Europe, it's held on a boat and is a grand old time. Marcell, the organizer who brought us out for Budapest Blues, likes to tell a story, and so he constructs a story around the theme. The theme this year was Pirates, which was quite convenient for me since I am one.

So Marcell had me play the Pirate Captain with my crew of mostly Hungarian Pirates (whose English stage vocabulary was mostly limited to "Yarrr!"), and I worked with Seattle Mark, which went really well.

The final act,
a very amusing skit that Marcell had me put together... ( comments)
..I was the Pirate Captain
for the weekend, for skits and the like. Marcell wanted:
1) Introduce a dance piece
2. Tell everyone when they had to leave (4am)
3. Thank the organizers/teachers
So he gave me a crew of (non English speaking) pirates and I put this together. There's mention of some tasks (like one night they had a 'Become a Pirate' training grounds) that they had setup as prior shows. [Video, 25M] ( comments)

..which you could take your photo with.
