Sorry I am confused.

When my class first went to BDSS they had seen little else in the way of BIG shows, now they have seen some of the best in the world at Festivals and on tour so they can compare. But I was assuming that there are lots of dancers in America who have not been exposed to anything BIGGER than BDSS. That was my point.
I think yours was different. No body is saying you don't have good dancers but in many cases they don't have the same effect on European audiences as do dancers from "over there".
