Is this limited to contra dances?

I've got:

May the Fourth Be With You (Jim Saxe)

Brimmer & May Reel (Dan Pearl)

First Turn in May (Circle mixer by Tom Hinds)

Lucky Five (Circle Mixer by Bob Dalsemer)

(Also an Early American "First of May" and Dudley Laufman's 48-bar 
"Sweets of May", which is more of a barn dance.  There's a Scottish 
five-person dance called "Domino 5" if that's any help.)

Hello Mary,

Here is a circle mixer I wrote to teach Grande R&L.  Five's Alive is named
for the robot, #5, in the Short Circuit movie. (Hope you have seen that
movie.)

The link is a version of the dance set to a singing call with my wife Lynn
on harmony.  This video is from a community dance, NOT a contra dance.

Peace, Rich

The Fifth of May - Bernard Chalk

A1: Right-hand star.  First corners right-hand turn half-way, continue 
outside neighbour, home.

B1: Second corners left-hand turn half-way, continue outside neighbour,

Originally danced to jigs, this was the first dance performed by English

It has been published (wrongly notated) set to rants.
