UPCOMING SHOWCASE CALENDAR
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

December 27: DARK

January 3: DARK (Happy New Year!)

January 10: As the new year gets underway, and the cheerful goodwill of the recently ended holiday season fades, Shimmyshowcase returns to I-Candy Coffee with an apropos theme-- Post Holiday Blues! Coordinator Saviya and guest dancers MariaElena and Meryem Vani will enthrall with their creative coupling of Blues music to bellydancing. We still have openings for dancers who would like to perform for this evening. Please contact us at Shimmyshowcase@yahoogroups.com if you’d like a performance spot!

January 17: Xandra is excited because Elan returns to I-Candy Coffee for our first Shimmyshowcase of 2010 with LIVE MUSIC! Rico & Marguerite of Elan will delight both dancers and audience alike with their exquisitely played and sung arrangements of middle eastern music, interspersed with some blues and standards during the breaks. Jilly, Saphira, and Gaea are featured dancers, and we are looking for one more dancer who would like to perform with Elan. If that would be you, please contact us at Shimmyshowcase@yahoogroups.com for a performance spot!

January 24: Coordinator Abraiha presents guest dancers May, Ana, Constance, Akiko, and Nazi from Dance Garden.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please allow time for parking to avoid missing any of the fun. Since street parking around I-Candy Coffee is scarce, we recommend you try the perimeter of Bixby park located two blocks west of I-Candy Coffee at Broadway and Cherry. Please try to arrive before 7:00 PM (earlier if you’re a performer!) as we try not to start the show until everyone has settled with a tasty beverage.
