Communist Plot                      by John Coffman       approx 10/10

Duple, Improper



A1       ½ Hey {men pass left shoulders to start}(8)

            Neighbor Swing (8)



A2       Men Pull Across with Left Hands (2), Partner Allemande Right 1X
(6), Men Pull Across with Left Hands (1), Neighbor Allemande Right 1X (6),
Men Pull Across with Left Hands (1)



B1       Partner Balance and Swing (16)



B2       Ladies Chain (8)

With New Neighbors, Allemande Right 1 ½ (8)



Notes:  New dance; not sure of flow in B2; I recommend teaching this dance
by starting at the bottom of B2; that is, have dancers allemande their
neighbor right 1 ½ so men are in correct position to start the ½ hey.  I
would also be sure to tell dancers that you are actually starting {the
teaching} at the end so they will be in correct position to start the
dance.  After the walk through, dancers should be in correct position to
start the dance.  That is, dancers will have exchanged places with their
opposite gender neighbors after the new neighbor allemande right in B2 –
this will put the men in correct position to start the ½ hey by passing
left shoulders as they will when the dance/music begins.
