Jenn Lane and Zorba, "The Veiled Male" perform a memorial dance for Doreet "Didi" Gordon. The video is, frankly, awful - the venue was dark and there was a hyperactive fog machine, so its barely viewable - but not so bad as to hide the rather bad mistake Zorba made!
The intro is a bit hard to understand as well, it reads: Zorba and Jenn, the "Choreography Queen", will perform a duette that is dedicated to the late Doreet "Didi" Gordon, of Santa Cruz, California; who Zorba danced with for several years. This is a "Cabaret Dancer's interpretation of Gothic Tribal Fusion", danced to one of Didi's favorite songs, "Voo-Doo", to which she and her dance partner, "Vulgaire Turpentine" often performed. We have attempted to incorporate some of Didi's signature moves, but the "Cabaret Headache" poses are an inside joke between Zorba and Didi, who actually detested the things! Enjoy!
P.S. Zorba's dreads were made for him by Didi a number of years ago (and they are fabulous!)...
UPDATE: A year and a half after this performance, Zorba finally finds a video of Didi with her troupe performing the original "Voo-Doo" - well worth watching: youtu.be/YHRbuWuVbKE
