Farewell Ceilidh, Budapest, 2015.
An exuberant performance of a dance with unusual phrasing inspired by music from Pirates of the Caribbean. The dancing starts around 1:30 into the video after a little introductory pirate drama. The deviser and his wife start as 1st couple (though there are substitutions of couples each repeat during the performance).
