Will,

Here is a dance that I have called a few times, and I like it because it is
a little different.  It is phrased, although the timing becomes a little
more critical with four couples.  I hope it is something you can use.

Proper Lines of 3 or 4 couples
A1 	1's lead down center, turn alone come back
	Return & Cast around 2's.  As they cast:
A2	Gents turn LH star, Ladies turn RH Star(at same time)
B1	When 1's meet, switch stars, lady passing in front.  Keep star
moving. Each couple switches as they meet.
	All switch back as they meet again
	When 1's meet again lead all to top, peel the banana, 1's make arch
at bottom
B2	Others pass under arch to top, 2's are now 1s

I neglected to mention that I'm looking for dances that might be suitable
for more experienced dancers. I've found a fair number of dances that can
work well with a small number of dancers, but nearly all are geared towards
beginner dancers, with only the most basic figures. Finding interesting
dances that can satisfy more experienced dancers - near the end of a
smallish dance or at a party - seems to be the challenge.

Thanks to Richard for your suggestions, I will be following up! Is Nine Pin
anything like the John McIntire's "Prime Minister's Breakdown", which I've
heard described but never seen or danced and which I believe has a similar
three-by-three formation?

Thanks,

Will Loving
