1994 Carnaval, Bailhe De Lowell, MA (Martins)

1994

Dancers perform while accompanied by guitars, saxophones, trumpets, and accordions. Several men take turns singing solos. In the middle of the dance, some of the dancers dressed in formal wear act in comical theatrical performances before the dances and music resume. Toward the end of the event, a woman emerges from the audience to join the actors on stage. The video ends with an announcement being made about the next dance performance. The dancers wear sparkly blue shirts with white pants.

Performed at the Holy Ghost Society in Lowell, MA.
