The Pack

Reprising The Pack, a Czech troupe, which, sadly, may have gone inactive.  Their main website is dead, and the last post at Facebook was in 2015.

The fuchsia costumes are from 2012; the others are more recent.  See some black and white photos at Classic Cancan:

French Cancan - Monika Knap

Monika Knap's students in a videoed performance, with a bonus photo from Instagram.  As noted in her quotes in the prior posts below, she believes the cancan as performed at the major shows can be too uniform and structured.  The video is a little dark and only 480p, but it's definitely worthwhile.

Practice in the Great Hall

Or a dress rehearsal, perhaps,

Four dancers from an unidentified troupe perform.  The perspective is off, but the costumes are classic and the performance is nice, if short.
