Ellsworth at Tilton, San Mateo) Music by the Divertimento Dance Orchestra under the direction of James Langdell Accessible country dances taught on the fly by Alan Winston; it helps if you can walk, listen, and know right from left most of the time.

The night of Mr. Lucas's Assembly where Elizabeth and Darcy first meet. And any other Jane Austen characters who want to come along! For those looking for color themes for outfits, the stage will be dainty in a white with floral print, somewhat of a tearoom in look, not too grand, but certainly respectable: http://www.flickr.com/photos/dancingisland/419669496/ http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=419669781&size=o Period costume admired, but not required.
