Swingcopation!
As I type, the lovely travellin’ ladies Adora Derriere and Sapphire Demure are heading back to our shores via auto-gyro or some other contraption from the London Burlesque Festival (sans Trixi Tassels who has decided to leave as for adventures in the world beyond – BOOOOOO!). They have been teasing us with little postcards of how much fun they have been having via the bookface and the tweeter. I so wish we all could have gone but feel happy that we could at least take part vicariously through Adora, Sapphire and the internet. I have been stalking YouTube and all manner of places to see photos and videos of the acts at the festival. Which is how I came across this little gem. It’s a performance by Australian expat and teacher for Swing Patrol, Ben Cook.
It’s so awesome! I have a routine to this song so I just loved watching someone else’s interpretation of the music. I really like all his breaks and the little comedy nuances. So, so inspiring!
I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!
Until next time my dears!
