Peter Proctor's dance class

I totally forgot to blog about this.

Last Saturday I tagged along to Peter Proctor's "Dance for the Danceless" class. That isn't what it's really called, but it is a class designed to teach basic dance and movement skills to actors and singers who aren't exactly triple threats. That's a great idea. It was their annual "show off what you really do" party and Peter wanted to sing "When You Loved Me" from Sylvia So Far.

But first they danced and it was lovely. They waltzed! They stood in a circle, men inside, women out, waltzed for four bars and at the end of every fourth bar the man twirled the girl under his arm and sent her on to the next man. It was so pretty. I just watched and loved.

Then they strutted out what they really do. These people are talented. Funny, witty, charming, absolutely great voices. And I was, as always, very proud to have PP do that song. It was written specifically for him to sing and he does it breathtakingly. One of the SSF reviews called it "an American Idolesque ballad" and I take no issue with that.

It was great fun and the cauliflower pizza was delish.
