What: An introduction to my latest traditional Regency...
There will be more orgeat lemonade, a costume contest, and prizes! You don't have to wear a costume, but it sure is fun to dress up and goof off. Nor do you have to dance, but it gives you new respect for all those book heroines. Becoming an accomplished young woman was no cakewalk.
If you want to catch glimpses of our dance, "Auretti's Dutch Skipper," you can watch the Gwyneth Paltrow Emma on Netflix Instant. At 1 hr, 18 min in, when Mr. Elton is snubbing Harriet Smith and Emma is fretting, the dance she and Frank Churchill are performing is Auretti's Dutch Skipper!
And if you'd like to watch ordinary (non-movie) folk giving it a go, here's a YouTube link:
Looking forward to a fun evening!
