Later this week, the New Globe Theatre will host ‘The Sands Of Tatooine – Dancers From Mos Eisley Cantina’.
Enter the Cantina where you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy, witness exotic and sensual dances from the desert planet with two suns. See R2D2 and C3PO gracefully glide amongst storm troopers en pointe. Face Lord Vader as he draws you in with his sexy cape moves. This is fan-fiction from highly trained classical artists, a parody performed by oriental dancers, a must see for true ‘Star Wars’ fans.
One of the dancers, Bertie Page, shares her Top 5 ‘Star Wars’ dance moves.
Darth Vader's Cape
Every belly dancer is familiar with the sensual art of veil dancing. It is obvious that (before he went all dark side) Vader took oriental dance classes alongside other Jedi training. What sexuality, what grace, one seductive flick of his cape and I'd come to his side any day.{youtube}_RFYoZ7H67A{/youtube}
Greedo Shot First?
The hand is quicker than the eye. If any dancer could achieve the lightening fast reflexes of this green guy they would know that they have surpassed human limits. Or you could just go back over it and have Lucas change it with CG.{youtube}xxODU7RK730{/youtube}
Ewok Happy Dance
Those furry, little critters sure now how to throw a party and they know how to bust the moves to go with. Don't be mistaken by their adorable pelts and chubby frames, they are savage and won't hesitate to play bongos on the heads of storm troopers. They were the ultimate tribal fusionists in that galaxy far away with lots of hip grinding and butt shaking around blazing bonfires.{youtube}7Tb4F9D1W_k{/youtube}
Leia's Bronze Bikini
What oriental dancer wouldn't want to be Leia? She's just about the only female human in a super sexist universe and ready to kick its arse. Whatever life throws at her she's ready, Fighting the Empire? You've got it. Navigating dense forests at top speeds on a speeder bike while fighting imperial troops? No problem. Chained up and dressed in a skimpy outfit for the entertainment of an obese nose booger? You know she did it with style. Jabba the Hut thought he was getting a lap dance, he got strangled.{youtube}tMUvVvMLVBU{/youtube}
C3PO's Humorous Gait
Want to learn how to do ‘The Robot’? Look no further than our golden friend. Who doesn't get a kick out of this camp, stress-ey droid and his loveable foil R2D2. That little kitchen bin on wheels is so cruisey – study his roll to achieve an effortless glide.{youtube}LayytCn7jno{/youtube}
