Buffalo Gals Stampeded the Merlin
22nd Mar, 2012 5:23pm
Buffalo Gals are launching a new show, which will be airing for the first time on Thursday, April 5, at the Merlin Theatre in Frome. We love working with dancers, and playing for dancers, and now that we have several dancers we adore in the Buffalo Gals fold, we want to put on a bigger show with a greater emphasis on the excitement of percussive step-dance.
On April 5, we will be performing at the Merlin, and donating all proceeds to the Theatre. It's an important part of our community, and has always given us a lot of support. Somerset Arts cuts affect the running of the Theatre, and we hope that, with a full house, we can give a good sum back to the Merlin arts programme. So, please, show up!
Three Buffalo Gals dancers will be performing that night, Jenny Read, Sibs Riesen, and Sarah Marshall--all superb flatfooters. We'll also have talented members of Apakella Appalachian dance team joining us for displays of precision formation dance and other interesting and entertaining aspects of step-dance.
Don't forget to look at our list of upcoming gigs if you are in the Shropshire or Herefordshire areas. We'll be up there March 29 through April 1, accompanied by Dan Eccles and Jake Jones, two of our Stampede's finest dancers, who will be a great enhancement to that series of performances.
