The photographer must have drained the battery on this set - cute, but
quite modest:

Karin's?

 

Here is a really nice set of photos of a very pretty cancan troupe from
Denmark. I think it may be Karin's, based on the style of the costumes.
See this remarkable set of originals, taken by Peter Poulsen, at:

Study in Sepia

The Sharon Thompson dancers perform an excellent Can Can at The Tivoli Club of Western Australia. The sepia tone of the video actually adds something to it, I think. The performance includes, among other nice moves, a long handstand and the rarely perfomed maneuver made infamous in the old "Carry On, Cowboy" film. You'll know it when you see it.

The original video, available in 720p, was posted by LifeIsStaged at:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ht7vgyELEO8

I couldn't find a website for the dancers, but here's their contact information, should anyone wish to hire first rate troupe in Australia:

Sarau Romântico - Le Chat Noir

For the white panties and stockings fans - like me - this is a cancan by dancers who I presume are students at the Colégio São Paulo. The choregrapher is Letícia Gonzalez. Nothing spectacular, and there is a hyperactive lighting guy, but I still like it.

See the original video at:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_t3tSxVfahU

For a better look at the shiny whities, sans skirts, check the following video:

And there is another video of the cancan shot from farther away:

Glasgow Subway Festival

You may remember a series of photos on Flickr of some Scottish lasses
cavorting in costume on a subway train. Here's a link to the same girls
in the station before or after the ride:

I am sure you will recognize some of the ladies from prior postings.

Unfortunately the photos are watermaked, but they are nice nonetheless.
You may be able to find some more things of interest by searching around
and using the keywords.

French Cancan - You Tube

Someone has posted most of the film, "French Cancan", on You Tube in 480 resolution, which, though not HD, is pretty good quality.

The two most relevant segments are:

(Practice)

(Makes perfect)

You can easily find the rest of it.

Pauline Reader Dancers at the Great Dorset Steam Fair

Great video by nickn5nl of the Pauline Reader Dancers in performance at the Great Dorset Steam Fair. The videographer laments the sun shining into the camera, but compared to most performance videos this is a gem. Many thanks to nickn5nl for this enjoyable video.

See his description at the You Tube posting below where he gives some background about the event and the Pauline Reader Dancers. They have been a fixture at the Steam Fair for many years. May they continue the tradition for many more.
