Riffin' and Tappin' is a high energy chronicle of the history of Tap in America and the growth of Jazz. With four mad-hot tappers backed by a tight jazz combo, Riffin' and Tappin' includes everything from the famous “stair dance” by Bill "Bojangles" Robinson and Shirley Temple, to the improvisational tap style of Savion Glover. The dancing never stops and the show never slows down!
