Saturday night I went to see the International Academy's Indian Students Association's annual show.
Leah was a part of the Senior Fusion dance act, proving that while you don't have to be Indian to be in the performance. A lot of her friends are Indian and wanted her in the performance so she took part and had a great time.
There was a lot of talent on display.
The show began with the singing of the National Anthem followed by the National Anthem of India.
There were then a variety of dances from Bangra to Bollywood, and even some K-pop.
Some dances were impressively athletic displays of skill:
The show included a solo playing a violin Indian style.
I've never seen a violin played like that, and it was rather amazing. Had a very Indian sound and reverberation that was quite different from classical violin or fiddling. and while quite different, it had a very beautiful sound.
The Senior Fusion Dance was a mix of six dances and all the graduating seniors taking part, so it was a full stage and a lot of fun.
Lots of effort and lots of time spent practicing went into putting on this show and it really showed. This was a bunch of great and enjoyable performances. The show raises money for charity and takes place every year.
Great bunch of kids and a great performance.

"K-Pop"?
Is that the elusive Korn-Pop that Squinty McBiden stared down in Scranton?
Eaton Rapids Joe: Korean pop music. It's kinda different.
