North Carolina's The Mezmer Society makes their Southern California debut at The Oasis! Join us for a weekend of "Lush Cabaret & Balkan Ruckus" including (but not limited to) belly dance, cabaret performance, Romany music, foppish occultism, & more!
Saturday, October 3 Workshops:
"Feisty Fanwork & Combinations"* ~ Special 3-hour workshop!
Noon - 3:00pm :: $45 for this class or $120 for ALL 4 pre-reg/$50 at door
A class inspired in equal parts by Flamenco, the fine art of flirtation, and every performer's need to capture the audience. Onça's Fan Fusion is long on musicality, emotive power, attitude and upper body strength. Savor the flavor of passion as we explore the potential of every artist's indispensable tool; the Fan. This class offers sassy combinations that can be used by artists of every genre to captivate and communicate. *Most fans will work: feather fans and fan veils will be discussed, but are not usable for the purposes of class. Onça's preferred fans will be for sale at this class, or bring your own.
"Sing, Gadje, Sing"*
3:30 - 4:30pm :: $15 for this class or $120 for ALL 4 pre-reg/$20 at door
This class is for everyone - dancers, musicians and laypersons who want to participate in making the party Happen. Come as you are to learn melodies and harmonies to several Balkan tunes that we will later sing together in the evening showcase! *No prior experience with reading, or singing music, required.
Sunday, October 4 Workshops:
"Swordwork: Swanky, Sultry & Silly"*
Noon - 2:00pm :: $35 for this class or $120 for ALL 4 pre-reg/$40 at door
Sword is one of Onça's favorites. The synergy of a shining sword and a skilled artist is incredibly powerful. Yet, making the most of the power of the blade requires attention, respect, and a strong sense of narrative. In addition to dynamic combinations for soloists and ensembles, learn a bit about sustainable technique, history, and the care & feeding of swords. This workshop is open to all levels and suitable for artists of all genres. *Students must bring their own sword.
"Cane Dancing: Foxy or Folkloric?"*
2:30 - 4:30pm :: $35 for this class or $120 for ALL 4 pre-reg/$40 at door
It's all how you handle the big stick. Cane, or 'Raks Assaya', is a traditional woman's dance art that offers tremendous creative expression to bellydance artists. Building on our universal vocabulary of movements, we will drill sustainable cane technique and explore versatile combos with attitude. Add spice to your style of Cabaret or Fusion with 'Raks Vaudevillia'! Great for developing both troupe precision and the theatrical face of our dance! *Some canes will be available for purchase at this class, or bring your own.
