"World Beat"

The third show out on the Gem is called "World Beat" It's another collaboration between Dave Patton and Gary Musick and is a GMP original production. The sets look awesome and the cast does a great job on this show too. It was an extremely rocky night (the ship was really moving).

The show begins with a very cool section from Spain and then moves through several other regions...

"Cielito/ Vamos Bailar"

"Tell Me Something Good/ Lean on Me" (NY section)



"Getcha Head in the Game"

Ella calls this the mirror song. :) Jamie sings "Reflection" from Mulan in the Asian secftion of the show.


Jamie and Kwame sings "I Wish" in the NYC section of the show




Ryan sings "Getcha Head in the Game" (NY section). The ship was REALLY rocking...you can see the set piece up there swinging and Ryan being careful for balance. It's amazing how the dancers do their thing when it's rocky. Sometimes the dance captain will make the call and take out special tricks and other things for safety.



Jamie singing "Cotton Eyed Joe". I love the country set for this show. It's way cool!



"Opa, Opa" The Greece section



"Africa" There's really no way to capture just how cool this section really is in person and I LOVE this song and TOTO.
