Saturday night I watched the "fast-food version of dance." And I had a fabulous time.
After some pre-show martinis at home, Margaret, Dave, James, and I rocked up to the Sydney Entertainment Centre at Darling Harbour for the event of a lifetime (well, maybe just the year): So You Think You Can Dance (Australia) - ON TOUR. Australia's Top Ten were there to perform some of our favorites (Singin' in the Rain!) and remind us of how fun Sunday evenings were a few months ago. I got to get in touch with my inner 16 year old and show support for my favorite TV stars.
The fast food quote comes from Meryl Tankard in this Sydney Morning Herald article a few months ago. You may recall I saw Meryl Tankard's Inuk 2 in March. Though it may have been sophisticated, I didn't like it. Some of the dancers in SDC are certainly more impressive, but give me Jack and Kate any day over a tribal screaming match.
I am looking forward to catching Sydney Dance Company's next performance. I am also looking forward to SYTYCD Season 2!
