Dance and theatrical performances are a subject I really love. It is a all a question of ryhtm and anticipation.
Please forget bracketing and tune in to the show. Unless the performers are in a long pose, the timing is so tight that bracketing would most likely make you miss the moment. And it is so rewarding to capture the right moment: it is a bit like being part of it.
Of course, if you have the chance to see the spectacle a few times, you know you will get killer shots as you will already have spotted the crucial moments. However, I personally take a lot of pleasure getting it right on a unique performance....
