Mark Ballas at Ballroom with a Twist, 7/16/10

BWAT at Chautauqua, New York. :) Friday, July 16, 2010 at Chautauqua Institution.

Here is a write-up about the show from GoErie.com: "Ballroom With a Twist twists and shouts into Chautauqua"

Mark flew to NY state on Thursday afternoon (and didn't sleep well that night. Poor guy.) Rehearsals on Friday and the show Friday night. :) Apparently, on the way to the NY show (the 2nd stop on the tour), the tour bus broke down (that was carrying the company dancers). Then, after Friday's show, the 2nd tour bus didn't show up, so the entire cast (25 dancers) had to fit on one bus to drive to PA. Jonathan posted this pic of the crowded bus:

Poor Mark looks so tired! Curled up with his luggage, dozing while sitting up on a loud, crowded bus. ick. :(

One of the company dancers, italoelgueta, tweeted that he was moving from the "party bus" to the "sleeping bus" at about 3am-ish local time (eastern). Well, at least the 2nd bus finally showed up.  o.O

After the show, Anna posted a bunch of pics from the show and backstage. Three of the pics included Marky:
