One of Gene's best dances. The end effects are surprisingly minimal. When there's no diagonal gentlespoon to allemande with, balance and swing your partner and face your shadow across; when there's a diagonal gentlespoon on the end, balance and swing their partner as usual and face in improper, not becket, so that the pass through will work correctly. The dancers tend to like to try to migrate when they're swinging. Make sure to emphasize that the ladles have to hold their places firmly and that you're facing the same shadows across the set after the neighbor swing every time.
