For Star Wars Day, a Regency ball celebrating astronomer Caroline Herschel, a professional musician and dancer and the first woman to be paid as an astronomer, discoverer of many comets, nebulae, and more., Alan Winston calls uncomplicated dances, mostly from late-1700s and early 1800s dance manuals, a couple of choreographed waltzes (Congress of Vienna, the new “Miss Herschel’s Comet”), and many free waltzes. Period costume admired but by no means required; formal or festive wear appreciated. See flyer: http://baers.org/Astronomy_Ball.jpg | ||||
