Pirate Square

Square set

4x32 jig, written to fit the extract from the theme tune of "Pirates of the Carribean" below.

A1: Head couples advance and retire

Head men pass LS to start half a reel of 4 up and down

A2: Side couples give RH to partner and balance, while head men turn 3/4 LH and head ladies chase 1/4 CW round the outside

RH star half way on each side to put the head ladies into the middle, move the head men out, and swap the side couples with their partners.

Original side couples give RH to opposite and balance, while head ladies turn 3/4 LH and head men chase 1/4 CW around the outside

RH star half way at top and at bottom, to put head men in and head ladies out.

B1: Repeat A2 from new positions

B2: Balance and swing partner (head couples have changed places).

The second and fourth times through the dance the side couples lead.
