Despite weather and rush hour traffic, we all managed to arrive in time (just barely). It took 2 1/2 hours to get from Boston to Worcester that evening, which is probably not that unusual for a rainy Friday.
The audience was huge and the venue was full to capacity. There were several people outside trying to get in. The audience who did manage to get tickets were all enthusiastic to say the least.
It was fun to see the costumes of the other performers. Bolivia was on right before us and they looked amazing.
Another thing to note was this was the first time a faculty member performed at this show. Yuko set a precedence.
As we were leaving, a student from Spain thanked us for representing her country so well.
Here's a comment Yuko received from her friends.
"Just wanted to congratulate you on your performance last night. Now my husband and I thinking maybe we'd like to try flamenco...."
We performed a shortened version of an Alegrias we've performed in the past. Sabrina Aviles did the choreography. Sabrina also has classes for beginners.
We didn't know that the show was streamed live over the Internet. In addition, they posted our performance on YouTube.
