点评:We were given a gift of Afternoon Tea & dancing at the Tower Ballroom and the ballroom did not disappoint. It is a wonderful sight,very ornate & was like going back in time with its elegance & grandeur.
The afternoon tea was very nice & we were seated in the front so we could watch the dancing.
Having said all this the disappointment for us,as dancers, was that there was far too much sequence dancing. It seemed like the organist was playing for the regulars & what they wanted to do. There was no ballroom quickstep played nor a tango or an Argentine Tango & yet there were 2 Mayfair quicksteps and a Broadway quickstep ,both of which are sequence dances. Then there was 1 paso double but was only available for some couple doing a demo! We were there for 3 hours & yes enjoyed the experience but feel the dancing should be more fairly split.
翻译:我们收到了一份礼物,在塔楼舞厅享用下午茶和跳舞,舞厅果然没有让我们失望。它美不胜收,装饰华丽,优雅而宏伟,仿佛回到了过去。
下午茶很棒,我们坐在前排,可以欣赏舞蹈表演。
话虽如此,作为舞者,我们感到失望的是,舞池里的接续舞太多了。感觉管风琴演奏家只是在为常客演奏他们想跳的舞。没有国标快步舞,也没有探戈或阿根廷探戈,但有两支梅菲尔快步舞和一支百老汇快步舞,这两支都是接续舞。然后还有一支双人斗牛舞,但只供几对情侣表演示范!我们在那里待了三个小时,确实很享受这次体验,但觉得舞蹈的分配应该更公平一些。
