So some people have to hoof it over 100', in the dark, with a dozen other people... in 2 measures.
So how'd that go? Because if that turned out to be possible in two measures, I'm going to have to get @Polygeekery to burn down your dance studio as a home for witches.

@heterodox Two really, really slow measures...

It was 4 counts of 8. And it turns out the studio director made a last minute change so those people exit & re enter on the same side.

Ah, better than I expected on both counts. I guess your studio is safe for now.

So apparently this thing is being live steamed.
If those were red, they'd be worth a fortune!
(For people from the future, check what happened in January and February 2018 on the chart I linked.)

CNTV
People who have bought digital TV box can see that channel, but since my family seldom watch TV these days, we still keep our old TV that can only receive analog channels, that's TVB, RTHK and their English programme channels.

Was this the same giant theater that had the blackface comedy performance the BBC is bitching about now?

Possible that it was part of the same program, but different location. That isn't the Sony Center (completely different layout, staging, seat color, etc).

This morning...
I feel like I forgot something. Heather, did we forget something?
I don't think so. What do you think we forgot?... Flashback, 1 week ago, final dress rehearsal ...
(studio director & choreographer) Okay, everyone! The TV station has asked us to shout "Happy New Year" in Chinese at the end of our set, during the streamers, when the music goes "bang"
(thinking) uhh-- you mean the part where everyone is struggling to get into position, do two jazz turns, then pull the streamers out of our jackets in time for the ONE moment when the music stops-- and thus we have no counts to go by?{we then all learn Xian Yen Quai Le-- "Happy New Year"-- and everyone shouts it at a slightly different time because we're busy struggling with the streamers, and there's no counts to go on}
Good enough, do that on stage!
... Flashback, yesterday afternoon ...
{on-stage tech rehearsal} ... run across stage in 4 counts-- step kick step kick step kick step kick, jazz turn right, jazz turn left, wiggle sign and fuckinghellthisstupidthing STREAMER! Woo! XIAN YEN QUAI LE!
... Flashback to yesterday evening, after everyone has been "hurry-up-and-waiting" for 5 hours, crammed into hallway backstage for 30 minutes, and now finally on stage in front of our largest audience ever, nerves on hold just long enough to remember the choreography
... run across stage in 4 counts-- step kick step kick step kick step kick, jazz turn right, jazz turn left, wiggle sign and fuckinghellthisstupidthing STREAMER! {fucking massive audience applauds}... exit music comes on, lights down, we exit.
... Return to present ...
Did you say Xian Yen Quai Le?
I didn't say it. Did you say it?
I honestly don't remember.
lol yo shitty cellphone vid from row ZZZ posted bing!
{Every single dancer on stage} ... run across stage in 4 counts-- step kick step kick step kick step kick, jazz turn right, jazz turn left, wiggle sign and fuckinghellthisstupidthing STREAMER! ... {fucking massive audience applauds}... exit music comes on, lights down, we exit.nope

It is really cool that you as a homosexual male have such a creative outlet and such an opportunity to display your fabulousness to the world.

We need to be careful. I already made a gay joke, and now this one. If we accidentally say a third, a @fox will appear and charge us with assault.

That's OK. You're well grounded so that charge will leak away and dissipate harmlessly.

@lorne-kates Your ribbon waving was the best.
-
So I see you front stage left for the final placard segment, but couldn't find you in any of the earlier subgroups.
-
Anyway, plenty of welly. Well done.

@lorne-kates How did you manage to get Hillary to perform with you?
(the one who gets her placard wrong at one point, and is middle-slightly-left (of course! ) at the end)
Nice show though, congratulations!
