Here’s a little video highlighting a professional performing artist that performed on our stage. And I can say with great pride, since she could walk I said, "that’s the face of a Rockette." (It’s true.) And low and behold, Mindy Moeller is now a Radio City Rockette! BUT more importantly, she is a TIP Alum!!! I know right? Cool! She is, as you can imagine, wonderfully talented. Mindi Moeller - A Day in the Life of a RocketteĪ Fun TIP Alum moment! It was 31 years ago that I met one of my favorite people. You can watch the whole luscious production now on PBS Great Performances or Broadway HD! Tim might be a tap dancer, but I’m partial to ballet (and Gershwin), so I’m sneaking in today to share one of my favorite dances from the Broadway production of ’An American in Paris’. ![]() Don’t know much about these folks? Here’s a cool look behind the scenes at Wicked on Broadway. Those extreemly talented folks who know SO MUCH about each show they are in… it is remarkable. So… there are some unsung heros backstage at broadway shows. More tap dancing, ’s obsessed and why not? And remember, Ginger did everything Fred did, Backwards and in HEELS! We were so excited for our Shakespeare class this spring, but we’re just going to have to console ourselves with the master of the bard himself, Sir Patrick Stewart reading us a different sonnet everyday.

Raise your hand if you LOVE ’The Lion King!’ĭid you you know that Julie Taymor didn’t just direct this sensory extravaganza, she also designed the costumes AND co-designed the masks and puppets. This presentation of ’Treasure Island’ is one of my ABSOLUTE favorite NT productions ever and is the perfect show for a family movie night. I’ve been obsessed with the National for years and have been very lucky to see many of their shows both live in London and in movie theatres through NT Live. Hi! This is April from TIP here and I have to admit that I’ve been the one posting everything National Theatre. Were you inspired by yesterday’s TIP video of Fred Astaire’s astounding tap dancing? (put in link to TIP) Then take this Introduction to Tap Dance class online! I’s a great way to get moving AND laughing. My favorite musicals are big old fashioned book shows. As an old tap dancer myself, I just gotta say… I NEVER tire of watching him. My favorite dancer of all time is Fred Astaire. And… it kinda has something to do with musical theatre:) Here’s a little something to dance the day away for today! The fun!
