Dance Performance

On Wednesday Weka class had a treat to go to Salisbury school because there was a dance going on. I thought that it was Zumba but no. It was sitting and watching but I didn’t mind because the people were like acrobats: it was amazing. At the start two people were under white quilts. I didn’t know what they were but it had to be exciting whatever it was. A hand popped out of the quilt each side. They did a high five that made me laugh but then they lept out of the quilt. They were dressed up as penguins. I liked it because they said their names in a DJ rap like this “I am Penny and this is Squeak and we have the longest beak”.

Today at Salisbury gym we watched four people dancing. I liked Alby the best. She was an albatross. It was a really exciting and amazing dance. Squeak and Penny were penguins and SeeSee was a sea lion. It had a bit of drama in it. They were in different costumes. There were sparkly eggs too. Squeak went on roller skates. Some of it looked like it was acrobatic. Sometimes they went up to people. I thought it was fantastic. But I didn’t like them coming up to me because it was a bit scary. It looked like they were going to fall on you. I was fine though.

The first dance looked so hard the dancers were doing back flips and handstands and probably the best cartwheels. They were dressed as animals: penguins, a sea lion and an albatross. The next dance they did was holding and throwing the shiny sparkly eggs. That dance was amazing. I felt like going up there and dancing with them. My favourite character was the albatross because she was good at doing the drama and it was a girl. In the next dance the boy was going around the room on his roller skates and then he went behind the walls and put his shoes on. Then the albatross had a fight with the girl penguin and they pretended that the girl penguin was dead. The last dance was when the penguins were dressed up as a big grouchy bear and tried to scare the sea lion away.

At the end they all introduced themselves. They said that they were travelling all over the world: it was fun!
