Thank You, Gregory: A Tribute to the Legends of Tap
Saturday, January 23, 7:30 pm
City High School, Opstad Auditorium
Eight of today’s most sensational young tap dancers salute the heroes of this most American of art forms. Thank You, Gregory explores the history of hoofing while revealing the vitality of a tradition driven by innovation and irrepressible energy. The spirit of the late Gregory Hines, perhaps tap’s greatest ambassador, is the show’s heartbeat. The souls—and soles—of these dancers propel Hines’ spirit forward in celebration of hoofin’ and hittin’. Featuring live music, film and photos, and narration—as well as simply stunning dancing—Thank You, Gregory taps into a wellspring of elation.
