Julian Blechner asked:
Do people know any dances with a grand R+L for the
set, like 3,33-33, but with partner and 2 shadows?
Nothing comes to mind for me. But Tod Whittemore's "Lost in Space" has a
grand R+L for the set like in "Salute to Larry Jennings", but with partner and
_3_ shadows:

Note that, as the title suggests, some people can find parts of the dance disorienting.
