Dance performances

[francymamo]

Hi everybody!! I would like to ask you what negatives and problems you find in a dance performance (discredited expectations, bad dancers and bad organization, uncomfortable seat...), everything you dislike and you want to change! It's for a project I'm trying to develop for my university.
Thanks a lot!

..what negatives and problems you find in a dance performance..

Resonances and other acoustic distortions caused by the room, panelling, windows, and furniture.

Eh I would say lighting, thats always been a huge bug to me.

Lack of seating with good sight lines to the floor. Sometimes that's just the nature of beast though.

Actually, the people dancing FOR you would probably have some input- a lot of event coordinators with no dance experience wake up one day and say "I think I want DANCE STUFF in my thing!" and never take into consideration the little things you just have to have go right: A decent-sized floor (12 x 12 doesn't cut it. At least 30 x 30), surfacing (no carpet, wood is best, but tile or something without a lot of either grip OR slip is okay), climate (sitters might get cold, but dancers will be roasting) sound (do they bring their own, what music, etc.?) Practice/dressing spots, etc. Hope this helps.
