Happy 10th Anniversary to The Elysium Cabaret!!!!! Every show is fantastic but this one was far, far more. The Empire Room was packed beyong capacity, holding strong as the crowd swept in to share this special day with us! Congratulations to The Elysium Cabaret and to all those who have dedicated all these years to creating and being a part of this magnificent troupe. Thank you to every one of you who have been a part of our lives and supported us this far! Here is to another ten years of excellence,creativity and magic!! We love you all!
*Pictures for this show are taken by three of us, Babypea, Tempe, and myself..enjoy!!!!!
Babypea and Diawa did a dedication to the Elysium Cabaret and a special presentation to Paul on this incredible night, and rather than use my words to describe this event, I am going to just paste their words in for you to see. Pictures of this were taken by Tempe, tysm and big hugs!
Presentation by Babypea and Diawa
(Babypea)me staggers up to the stage… looks around, smiles and strikes an attention-seeking pose….
Ladies and Gentlemen! Friends and Family! Dear Ones! Thank you all for coming out tonight to help Elysium celebrate a Decade of Dance! For ten years, we have been doing a show every Friday night and a matinee the last Saturday of each month, except for the occasional break when shows clash with some holidays. I will give you the Reader’s Digest Condensed Version of Elysium’s history:
Paul was my friend since like June of 2009. I met Gunner in 2011 and starting dancing in Gor. I moved to mainstream dance because I wanted to do more with dance. Paul and I shared a sim since around 2010. I invited him to come see me dance. Diawa said I should start a dance troupe and I told her no, I don’t know how. Paul and I decided to start a dance troupe with Gunner and Jilley. This was mostly because I was fed up with all the rules everywhere I danced, I wanted a place where I could do what I wanted and thought others might enjoy the same creative freedom. We started Elysium Cabaret on December 7th, 2012. I said, we will give it three months and see how we go.
Now it’s been ten years, and we are still here. We have hundreds of people to thank for that, including people on the stage, behind the scenes, and in the audience. THANK YOU anyone and everyone who has ever contributed to an Elysium show in any way. Over the years, we have had the best and the worst of times, and everything in between… the good, the bad, the ugly and the beautiful. Many changes have happened, and we have rolled right along with them. So thank you all so very much! Much love and fulfillment to you all.
Now it is my great pleasure to introduce a Second Life Virtual Dance LEGEND. One of the pioneers of SL dance, someone who was famous in the dance community for a long time by the time I found it. Many of the tricks and cool things we use in dance creation were begotten by Diawa. She did a lot of things first, and we all copied her. She has mentored many new dancers, including me. She is adorable and funny and sincere and honest and a legendary dancer. Please welcome the irresistible Diawa Bellic!
[18:05] Diawa Bellic: Hello! [18:05] Diawa Bellic: Babypea has inspired many performers, giving them their start in their dancing adventure. With countless others, myself included, the opportunity to perform on the Big Stage plays a big part promoting dance in Second Life. [18:05] Gunner von Phoenix (masterperry Resident) shouts: LIL DI DI !!!!!!!!! [18:05] Diawa Bellic: Paul Woodrunner also plays a huge part in the longevity and the success of the Empire Room and its Elysium Cabaret, also helping the community with his special shows through the Outsiders dance troupe, and maintaining the constant performances at Copperhead Road. [18:05] Diawa Bellic: Also want to recognize masterperry’s (The GMan) support and DJ’ing talent in this venue. I cant think of any other DJ that has logged the hours the GMan has logged. [18:06] Diawa Bellic: Together, their contribution to dance over the past decade has been huge. [18:06] Diawa Bellic: Now i will turn this back over to Baby [18:06] Babypea (BabypeaVonPhoenix Bikergrrl): Thank you Diawa, I love you 🙂
I would now like to take a moment to acknowledge and thank someone very special. He is one of THE most dedicated hard workers I have ever known in either life. He is loyal and dependable and cares deeply about honor and integrity, family and friends, and his work in both lives. Were it not for his driving force and determination, I do not think Elysium would still be around. He carries this troupe on his shoulders and in his heart. So tonight, we would like to invite Paul Woodrunner up on stage. Please come up here Paul.
It gives me great joy to present you with this Platinum Record Appreciation Award for all you do. I hope every time you look at it, you will remember there are people who notice how hard you work, and who really appreciate you. Thank you for making sure Elysium Cabaret has always had a home, and always had a show on a Friday to welcome in the weekend. We love you Paulie. 🙂
Please join me in giving Paul a standing ovation!!
[18:09] Paul Woodrunner: THANK YOU PEA [18:09] Babypea (BabypeaVonPhoenix Bikergrrl): Hugs you! [18:09] Paul Woodrunner: SO VERY MUCH [18:10] Paul Woodrunner: ITS BEEN A GREAT HONOR TO BE ABLE TO HANG OUT WITH SO MANY GREAT AND TALENTED PEOPLE YOU ARE ALL MY FRIENDS AND LOVE THE WORLD WE HAVE
I also have something for all Elysium staff… Choreographers, Dancers, and Behind the Curtain Staff. It is this gramophone and is engraved, something to remember this decade celebration… with appreciation and thanks!!
And for everyone, if you click the golden angel behind the DJ seat or the one in the center of the blue dance floor at the back of the theater, there are some really sweet things for you, as a thank you, and hoping you will enjoy them.
