Q &A with Entertainers

Another day we had a Q & A with the permanent entertainment staff, singers and
dancers only.

The singers are much older than the dancers. Joe responded to the question about
age and he explained how much more physical the dancing is. A lot of stamina is required.
Singers can just go on and on.

They were asked about embarrassing moments. Joe told about one time when his mic
was not turned off backstage and one of the male dancers needed help getting his shirt
tail tucked in. Joe told him to drop his pants and of course the audience heard. If you’ve
seen these shows you know that costume changes must be done very quickly.

They talked about dancing with one of their members missing and whispering to each
other as they moved about doing the routine with a person missing.

We had a backstage tour and I was surprised at how heavy some of the dancer’s
costumes are. I don’t know how they can dance so well wearing those heavy costumes.
