I can't believe it, but yes I did an actual "real public" performance. And yes it was against my better judgement, but it was fun. Sorry the picture is so blurry.... but at least we got one!

What I found more enjoyable than the actual performance was the "troupe" group feel. The getting ready for the performance, watching the others perform and then just hanging out after.

I really found pleasure in the time, effort and creativity it took to make my costume, knowing that I had to have it done in time for the performance. There is nothing quite like a deadline!

But like I said even though the public performing aspect doesn't really interest me, I find great joy in the gypsy sisterhood, and creativity that comes along with the performance.
