Incredible India

Last night John and I had the opportunity to perform for the Asian MBAA's

Incredible India night.

Our good friend Adam (a first year MBA, and friend from BYU) was asked to put together a Bhangra dance for the event, and since Adam and I danced together at BYU (and performed a Bhangra dance), he recruited John and I to join. It was really fun to dance and perform again; it has been awhile.

The night started with an authentic Indian dinner (red dots included).

Then we got into costume before the show started.

We were able to watch most of the show since we were the finale. There were several other dance numbers, some singing and instrumental performances, an Indian dating show (that was hilarious), and some videos and skits. I was quite impressed with how much work went into the show.

We had some help with our make-up and accessories during our final prep for our performance. I guess Bhangra dancers grow beards, so some of the other Indian performers painted them on the guys in our group.

Since we were the last number of the show, the audience had thinned out a little (we didn't perform until 10:40PM!!), but everyone seemed to love it. In fact, we missed our entrance because we couldn't hear the music with everyone cheering so loudly. It ended up being a really fun night, and I'm glad that we were able to be a part of it.
