One of my favorite dances from Gene. A rare example of a Becket dance with lines of four down and up the hall, and a clever little progression via the right diagonal chain. It's a fantastic dance to inject variety into an event with a mixed crowd, since there's enough unexpected to scintillate experienced folks without overwhelming beginners.
