ahka | Jawaahir -- the Dark Nightingale Show

On Sunday I was hanging out with kids during the day while Boris was playing soccer and in the evening went to see Jawaahir Dance Company show at the Ritz Theater with my friend. I enjoyed the time that I spent with my friend and I loved the show!

I was very happy to see my friends performing and was somewhat sad that I was not in the show myself. However, it actually made me decide that I need to start taking classes again and actually start teaching dance. Jenny even agreed on helping me learn how to teach since she has been teaching for a while now.

The show was as always amazing. Dancers were absolutely beautiful – they danced with joy very gracefully. The colors of the costumes, the sparkles the shapes the light the MUSIC! Everything looked wonderful. As I was watching them dance, I couldn’t hold myself but dance with them in my chair.

Cassandra and the guest artist were absolutely wonderful! I was only surprised that Cassandra appeared only once on the stage. Also, this show was simple in terms of use of unique props as it has been before. Even though I was waiting for something interesting and unusual as always, I truly enjoyed the simplicity of just dancing and of pure choreography accompanied with wonderful live music and singing. They used light features with some background colors and pictures but nowadays it is usual prop used pretty much everywhere.

This was my first time seeing Jawaahir perform at the Ritz. It is very similar to the Southern Theater only here dancers perform on the elevated stage unlike at the southern. I thought it added more class to the show.

I was energized and inspired by this show!
