Some version of Crooked Stovepipe (Le Pipe Accroché)
Square:
Head ladies forward & back
Forward again & there they swing
Circle six hands around them while they swing
Allemande left your corner, do-si-do your partner
Allemande left our corner again, promenade your own.
Repeat for side ladies, head gents, side gents.
(Can also be done instead as Head lady and the opposite gent go forward &
back, etc.)
Has its own tune.

ONS = One Night Stand. Easy dances for crowds with almost no
experienced dancers.

I can forward this to our Irish dance group and see if they can

you
out. What is ONS ? I'm not familiar with that abbreviation. If
you are
talking about ceili dancing for beginners there are some simple
ones
but
there is also specific music that goes with them. Good luck.

Hi all,
I am planning an ONS for about 100, mostly adults. The husband
of
the
organizer is Irish, from Ireland, and her dad, I
think, is
either
French or
French-Canadian.
Do you have any suggestions for Irish, French, or French
Canadian
dances
that might have been popular where these folks
grew up, and
which
would be
appropriate for this crowd. The organizer
mentioned
specifically
that her
dad especially liked French Quadrilles. Do you
have any that
these
folks
might enjoy? Any and all suggestions are, of
course, more than
welcome.
Thanks.
