It was much more than sitting,
Much more than applauding,
So much more than an evening
Out to see them dancing.
So much more than bodies twisting,
More than engaging
In those fine stories unfolding,
To the attention of a spellbound audience,
Much more.

Effective use of repetition, Gillena, and the use of the continuous tense makes it all very immediate.
