Broadway Baby (2015)
“Fun facts about tap and musical theatre: Musical theatre is a form of theatrical performance that combines songs, spoken words, acting and dance. Musicals as we know them began to be popular in the first quarter of the 1900s. A lot of musical films you might have seen would have begun on the stage.
The first dog to play Sandy in the original Broadway production of Annie was saved from a pound and made a star. From then on, traditionally every dog who played Sandy was rescued from the pound.
Tap... dancing is the fusion of British Isles clog and step dancing mixed with the rhythms of West African drumming. It began in the mid 1600s when Scottish and Irish workmen brought their social dances to the United States of America, where it was copied by slaves.
In the late 1800s, there were two tap techniques used: a fast style using wooden-soled shoes, and a smoother style using leather-soled shoes. By the 1920s they had merged when metal taps were introduced to the ball and heel of the dancer’s shoe.MoreLess
