Great question. I look forward to reading the responses. It's always tricky
because the dancers don't get to practice the end effects until they need to use
them once in anger, and then it's over in seconds. And it's hard to get them in
your head when you're practicing the dance at home as a caller.

Subject: [Callers] Dances with tricky end effects
I 'm planning on calling a couple of dances this weekend where there is
interaction with couples outside the usual minor sets. One of them is Dan
pearl's composition "Cal and Irene." My concern is what happens at the top
and
bottom of the lines.
What recommendations do you have to prepare dancers for end effects when they
are not used to anything more than "cross over and wait?"
Thanks.
Parker
