The "lady round two and the gent cut through" figure appears in Appalachian
square dancing. Ted Sannella was the first choreographer, to my knowledge, to
bring that figure into a contra dance with his New Friendship Reel, published in
his "Swing the Next" collection, which I highly recommend, along with his
"Balance and Swing," to anyone interested in developing their repertoire of
dances. Both were published by and available from Country Dance and Song
Society.
