I was recently calling dances at a small gathering using recorded music, and I altered the duple minor English dance "Easter Morn" just slightly to dance it as a triplet. In the B2, instead of ones leading down and casting back, I had the ones cross and cast down once place (to the bottom, threes moving up), and everyone turn two hands once round.

I think the dancers found the A2 stars (ones in the middle star right with the couple below, then star left the couple above) to be less confusing than in the longways version.

And as you probably know, the music is lovely.
