The Lilac of Pantomimes
The Lilac of Pantomimes is a war dance originally devised by the elf Elana Roundedwonders. The form guides dancers during improvised performances. The dance is accompanied by The Carmine Tress. The dancers perform in a circle, moving slowly to the music's timafi rhythm. The dance is undulating and delicate.
- The dance begins with the theme of the music. This section is punctuated by twisting spins, sluggish clockwise quarter turns and serene arm carriage.
- The dance enters a new section with the exposition of the theme of the music. The dancers perform along an improvised path. This graceful section is punctuated by counterclockwise half turns and leaps.
- The dance enters a new section with the bridge-passage of the music. This section is punctuated by serene raised left arms and passive raised right arms.
- The dance enters a new section with the recapitulation of the theme of the music. This expressive section is punctuated by sinuous independent body movement, leaps and serene raised left arms.
