CALL FOR DANCERS!— We have openings for Shimmyshowcases: October 17 (USO show) and November 7 and 14 (no themes—just belly dancing!). If you would like to perform on one of these nights, please contact us at Shimmyshowcase@gmail.com for a performance spot.

October 3 – Jannah from the Om Sisters presents a Shimmyshowcase night at the movies! Guest dancers Najma, Taliee, Azira, and Reba are eager to dance their favorite movie themes for your enjoyment. Please come down and join in the fun!
October 10 – Special Shimmyshowcase event at a special time (5:00 pm). Guest coordinator Katerina presents a Sufi Zikr inspired Shimmy Showcase with live music by Saf Mavi. Presenting a whirling performance by Marguerite Kusuhara and dancing by Lee Ali, Akasha Starr and Katerina and the Kabuki Dolls. Dhikr, otherwise spelt Zikr or Zikar, is literally "remembering". It is the religious ceremony or act of devotion practiced by the various Sufi orders. Universal Sufi Dhikr differs from the Islamic form of Dhikr, widening the scope of the term to encompass remembrance of the spiritual in all forms. Come join us for a moving music and dance experience -- starting earlier than usual at 5:00 PM.
October 17 - In the spirit of the USO this showcase is dedicated to our men and women in the armed forces. It is a special "fund raising" theme night, supporting a charity that remembers our military overseas by sending them reminders from home! All tips collected this night go to this cause. DANCERS "Aunt Saviya" wants YOU to entertain on behalf of our military and hopefully to our military as our guests! Saviya would love for every dancer who has a loved one or friend in the military to join us on this special evening and spread the word among your friends to come to Shimmyshowcase on October 17 for unique variations on dance orientale and other entertainment provided by Sarah al Nour, Katerina, Tom&Eve, Marija, and Del&Becky. We encourage our guests to bring small, lightweight items for “care packages” to our troops. (For more information and suggested items, visit http://www.SanPedroPackagesForPatriots.com). We also seek individuals with video recording equipment who would be willing to record our showcase to DVD. Let’s pack the house for our troops! We still have openings for dancers who’d like to try out their interpretation of our “USO” theme, so if you like the theme and the cause, please contact us at Shimmyshowcase@gmail.com for a performance spot.
October 24 - With Halloween around the corner, Ilana of the Om Sisters presents the “Thrills and Chills Shivershowcase.” She’s cooking up a program which we know is guaranteed to be fun, especially with Siraj, Draca, Sabrina, and Tahira&Azira already lined up to play their dance tricks on our magic carpet.
October 31 – DARK (No Shimmyshowcase this Sunday—enjoy your Halloween!)
November 7 – Xandra welcomes guest dancer Daliah, who will be making her Shimmyshowcase dance debut. We still have plenty of room for more dancers, so If you would like to be one of our featured performers, please email Xandra at Shimmyshowcase@gmail.com for a performance spot.
