Impossible Gig

My friend Claudine, an Oriental Dance teacher, has lined up a gig for her teen troupe and me(!) to be part of a show in Seattle. At first it sounds like a great opportunity, but the more I think about it the less I want to do it. For one thing: no pay. For another, I was expecting a couple of rehearsals for only a couple of performances, but it turns out to be rehearsals six days a week and then four weekends of performances. Insanity! I tell her there's no way I, or her troupe, can possibly do this gig, and she agrees.

Later: Working horses in an arena. On a movie? Preparing for a joust show? Wrangler with moustache gives advice to dark haired woman and then me, but now I can't remember the dialogue even though I can see the action...
