A few that I dig:

   - Double Click (Bob Isaacs) - both roles get circulate to swing
   transition
   - Robins on a Wire (Will Mentor) - mad robin/wavy lines at center groove
   - Apogee (Chris Page) - both RH and LH chains, orbits for both roles
   - Ellie's Pumpkin Show (Bill Olson) - wavy lines at center, fractional
   RSR's
   - Heart of Joy (Chris Page) - eye-contact poussettes
   - The Baby Jo (Maia McCormick) - smooth lost-and-found shadow dance
   - Reflections (Cary Ravitz) - here be dragons! This is a 1.5x
   progression dance on average (alternates single and double prog), be sure
   you understand this one VERY WELL before attempting to call it 🙃
