High Tea & Sarsaparilla

Saturday August 31, 2013

A Jane-Austen-themed Ball was held at the High Tea & Sarsaparilla English-American Dance Weekend in 2013 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the publication of Pride and Prejudice.

Gaye Fifer, of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania was our caller. Live Music was provided by Karen Axelrod of Northampton, Massachusetts on piano, Miranda Arana of Oklahoma City, Okahoma on Flute, and Martha Edwards from St Louis, Missouri on violin.  Someone had noted that Karen and Miranda really had great hair (lots of curl, lots of hair), so they became, temporarily, in honor of the Great Bear Trio, the Great Hair Trio.
