Arts & Humanities - 8 April 2007

I'm interested in getting involved in 18th century historical reenacting, and I was wondering if there were gypsies (or a similar kind of people) in America (preferably the Northeast) from 1750 to 1800. I'm interested in portraying a gypsy, or someone of a similar countenance/lifestyle/dress.

Here is the poem by Edgar Lee Masters, and I need an explanation. I actually have to act this out.

Seeds in a dry pod, tick, tick, tick,
Tick, tick, tick, like mites in a quarrel--
Faint iambics the the full breeze wakens--
But the pine tree makes a symphony thereof.
Triolets, villanelles, rondels, rondeaus,
Ballades by the score with the same old thought:
The snows and the roses of yesterday are vanised;
And what is love but a rose that fades?
Life all around me here in the village:
Tragedy, comedy, valor and truth,
Courage, constancy, heroism, failure--
All in the loom, and oh what patterns!
Woodlands, meadows, streams, and rivers-
Blind to all of it all my life long.
Triolets, villanelles, rondels, rondeaus,
Seeds in a dry pod, tick, tick, tick,
Tick, tick, tick, what little iambics,
While Homer and Whitman roared in the pines?

Someone told me about a group of wheel-chair-bound people who perform specially arranged dances in churches, hospitals and other locations. I've never heard of such performances before. It strikes me as unusual that a handicapped person would want to perform a dance on stage for an audience. But, on the other hand, why not? Handicapped people are allowed and encouraged to take part in all kinds of activities, including sports, right? So what do you think?

I don't have much coordination at all. DDR is about as close to dancing as I can get without tripping over myself.

I have no clue what to do with dancing.

For plays, we have to dance as a part of auditions. I'm fairly sure I'm the worst at dancing in drama club. Not to mention having to waltz at the end of a play was one of the most embaracing experiences ever.

At school dances, (the whole three or four that I've been to) I have no clue what to do. My friends are all coaxing me to dance, paying no attention when I say that I can't.

I can't afford dance lessons, and I would be too embaraced to go in the first place... So, any tips for me?
