  the host must have been a dancing fool......

• roderickbodine said:

  An orchestra of two. How minimalist.

• perfgeek said:

  Looks like it is quite literally "wall paper."

  Title: The accused Is this a joyful occasion? Seems pretty tense to me!

• artpease said:

  The 'host' might also be the 'caller' the one who cued the dancers to the next steps [swing your partner, do-si-do, allamende left, grand right and left, etc.]

  The Fairy Queen beside the conductor especially looks REALLY happy! No wonder Waterpark were no good at rugby going around in pyjamas all the time!

• Niall McAuley said:

  Fairies, pixies, an animal or two. A King and a Queen fairy, obviously. The dude behind the conductor could be a flower. I'm guessing that all the taller lads at the back are supposed to be humans, as are some of the front row. Something based on A Midsummer Night's Dream, maybe?

  Swordscookie On the other hand, Waterpark fly halves really did have wings!

• Swordscookie said:

  Nice riposte Carol and they did not need a well known caffeine crammed soft drink to get them either!

  Olds boys, very well...

'The Geisha' featuring Maie Grew as O Mimosa San in Brisbane Operatic Society production, 1916

  The Geisha, a story of a tea house is an Edwardian musical comedy in two acts. The score was composed by Sidney Jones to a libretto by Owen Hall, with lyrics by Harry Greenbank. Additional songs were written by Lionel Monckton and James Philp. The Geisha opened in 1896 at Daly's Theatre in London's West End, produced by George Edwardes. The original production had the second-longest run of any musical up to that time. The cast starred Marie Tempest and C. Hayden Coffin, with dancer Letty Lind and comic Huntley Wright. The show was an immediate success abroad, with an 1896 production in New York and numerous tours and productions in Europe and beyond. It continued to be popular until World War II and even beyond to some degree. The most famous song from the show is "The Amorous Goldfish".[1] Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Geisha
