Author's Notes:
This dance started out as a variation of Jubilation by Gene Hubert in which the partner allemande is replaced by a swing and the gentlespoons start the hey. This gives the same swing / 1/2 hey / swing sequence as in Diagonal Discovery, also by Gene Hubert. The dance is further modified by replacing the gentlespoons allemande left 1+1/2 and long lines with circle left 3/4 and right and left through, which moves the middle of the dance to the opposite side of the set.

Encourage spatially-aware traveling eye contact between dancers and their partners throughout the B1 up to the partner swing.
For a simpler dance, replace the single-file movement with a slide left along the set and a circle left 4 places, ending with the partners meltdown swing in the B2.

formation: Becket
Andrea Nettleton told me she wished callers would do more down the halls, but all the options in my box were pretty basic and I wanted something that used it as less of an "away we go" and more of a buildup.
