5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Purchase, 15 Aug 2005
By Lynda (South Africa / Ireland) - See all my reviews
I loved this DVD. Previous bellydance DVD's that I have purchased, have either been instructional or studio performances done specifically for video. This DVD however is a live performance at its very best and you can feel that extra energy that live performance requires radiating from the screen. I liked the variety of dance styles and costumes from traditional, tribal, contemporary and even Hawaiian and the mix of solo and group performances. The Marilyn scene may not be to everyone's taste, but remembering that this is a live show where the audience quite likely exists of enthusiastic belly dancers and less enthusiastic partners, I thought it added a nice break.
An inspiring DVD for dance teachers, planning their next show or concert with ideas on lighting, group numbers, stage entry and exit etc.. A truly excellent DVD. I also bought the Bellydance Superstars DVD at the same time which was a waste as it covers most of the performances in this show but with over smoky effects an shoddy camera work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Professional DVD from a professional show!, 12 Jun 2005
The DVD is every bit as good as seeing the show live! Although you can never quite capture the same excitement & ambiance at home as you can in the theatre. This DVD has exceptional quality & each dance is in it's own chapter, which is handy if you are a dancer studying choreography & dance tips. Every performer is truly a superstar who has mastered her craft. There's just two things that really let the video down. One being the 'Marilyn'act, bellydance & comedy just don't mix. The other is the bizarre finale with the girls walking down the stairs. I think that might've been Miles Copland's eccentric idea as none of the girls looked very happy to be doing it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bellydance inspiration!, 3 May 2005
Having just seen the live show, I thought the dvd would never match it! Wrong!! The filming quality is excellent and the content covers about 90% of the live UK shows. Very diverse in styles, the dance show varies from the undulating moves of the hawaiian style hula to the whirlwind veil dancing of Petite Jamilla ( awe-inspiring). My friends from my dancing class were all enthralled.The vast majority of the pieces are really great, with few exceptions, such as the 'Marilyn' bit, although that is probably my taste.Main highlights are the intro and finale, the Tribal pieces, Amar Gamal and Jamilla's dances- brill! Well worth viewing if you are a dance fan!
