On Stage

[jennyjoan]

Any of you on stage entertaining in your youth.

Yes I danced on stage from age 9-11 - at that age I choreographed it myself - it was a wee club in my area that I was in and I was a good dancer - but I wasn't allowed to sing. LOL

We travelled - to us it was far - probably about 10-20 miles away in wee parish halls.

Wish now there had been a camcorder or similar then.

[ummmm]

I used to do Irish dancing displays.

I did some Irish Dancing at the Church, sometimes we had a small audience.

After that only School productions, mostly G&S.

Scottish dancing, School plays, singing competitions and private tap and ballet classes and shows.

We was poor LOL I think I wore my Holy Communion dress which still fitted me up to 11 years as I was so skinny.

I loved it so much. No the dress - the whole thing.

What has poor got to do with being on stage?

Am I missing something?

[jennyjoan]

Well I would have liked a change in the costume after 2 years.

Islay - don't you worry - you never miss a trick.

Yes jj, I went to a dancing school at age 8 to 10 and I danced on stage, both ballet and tap. I wanted to be a ballet dancer at the time, but I grew too tall - happy days ...
