The BjP teddy bear has been named 'Tassie' after Tasmania where physie all started. Also suggested by a few people was the name Quasquicentennial, meaning the 125th anniversary, what an impressive word.
Registrations for performers opened last September and huge surge of eager dancers trying to get onto the site caused a bit of a delay. Yes, this event is as big and important as the Aussie '16 census. Fast forward 6 months and most zones had begun their rehearsals (late March - early April). Now it's June and 2000 physie girls and ladies are ready to portray the story of physie history to thousands of audience members.
This is what I've gathered from overhearing conversations during our drink breaks:
- Transitions roughly every 50 seconds and due to this performers can be running around to get to their next formation.
- 50 cm box of personal space.
- Each zone (or combined zone) represents a decade in history, not just for physie but they have music, props and costumes pertaining to their relevant era.
- The finale of the show will be all performers doing the current BjPop dance.
- If in doubt just do the arms.
