Tap Dance - Al Heyward
Tap Dance – Al Heyward
I’m writing this here so that whomever writes the book of tap dance history during this period will have a resource other than the immense number of facebook posts to go through. As is my habit, I will gloss over the commercial and deal more specifically with the first hit to the tap dance community that “RONA” (as my ER doctor friend likes to call it) has dealt us.

CDI 5th Year Festival Review
CDI 5th Year Festival Review
Andrew Nemr recounted how he’d once emailed a mentor, the late, great Gregory Hines, in despair over a romantic breakup.

Instead of asking for the support of a particular artistic endeavor this season, I’m listing three organizations that I am a part of, or believe in, and asking…
