My strategy has been scatter promenades. Instead of Fwd & Bk, Fwd & Pass
Thru, I call. "Scatter....Find a new couple and Circle left." (Dudley
referred to "Siege of Carrick".) You may loose a phrase or two, but no big
deal. Works especially well with dances that do not require 1s and 2s to dance different
parts. Sometimes the Circles and Stars become 16 steps instead of 8, especially with
children involved.
Aha! Sicilian Circles turn into Kentucky Running Set figures. I use those all the
time--and not in a circle of couples where Ones go one way and Twos the other, but just,
"go find another couple!"
One Nighters:
longways sets
big circles as a circle
big circles simple mixers
what's now called "scatter promenades"
and maybe, but only if the interest & attention seems there:
Jefferson & Liberty or Haste to the Wedding...
