Halloween falls on our regular dance night this year and we’ve been planning a party that night. Also, I am a great fan of Shakespeare and enjoy "The Scottish Play" a great deal. The title of this dance comes from a reference to the three witches in that play ("Double, double, toil and trouble. Fire burn and cauldron bubble.")
