I just think the biggest problem with the wizard of oz thing...was the lack of explanation to the whole idea..

when vcu did it..there was kind of a flow to the whole thing...all the way through...

this is true.
Yea that was definitely an issue, we wanted to stay away from making it too much of a theme and really wanted to focus on having a straight set from start to finish. In order to do that we couldn't introduce characters or develop it as much as might be done on a fusion or raas team. In the end we got positive feedback from the judges and the crowd seemed to enjoy the intro and ending so part of the goal was achieved.


It was difficult to leave it open ended and not really explain it much more, but we felt that expanding on it would have taken away from the bhangra aspect of the set which is what is ultimately important to us. The lack of explanation was a sacrifice I'd be willing to make for that kind of crowd response in the very beginning of the dance. Really appreciate the constructive feedback from you guys though.
Its an incredibly fine line bro...explain too much and the flow of the set is compromised....explain too little and you get a huh? from the crowd...either way..props for trying it.
