Troupe
Nambah and A Taste of Java co-hosted the first
Nambahlicious Hafla on a rainy Friday
night. We had a good turn out of
both performers and audience. A Taste of Java offered chicken shish
kebab dinners for a very reasonable price and Lunatic
Fringe and
Bahira's Beautiful Bedlah vended their
wares. A big "Thanks" to
everyone who braved the rain to support the belly dance community.
Here
are some photos of the performer line-up:

Nambah then got the audience up and dancing.
Open Dancing was a real treat -- not only for the dancers...
but for the owners of A Taste of Java
