Princess of Tap Posted November 15, 2015 And this is a tap musical about a tap choreographer who is drafted into the army. Can you name the tap dancer in the musical. And why not throw in the composer of the musical ok? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Princess of Tap Posted November 16, 2015 Well Marsha, I believe you're right. it's your turn-- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarshaKatz Posted November 21, 2015 This is a tap musical where one male tap dancer is mistaken for another male tap dancer. Can you name the two male tap dancers and the name of the movie? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess of Tap Posted November 21, 2015 Marsha-- it doesn't get any better than this--The Broadway melody of 1940 starred three great tap dancers--Eleanor Powell was my favorite & the top-billed tap dancer here. The other two that you're referring to who got mixed up in the plot were- - Fred Astaire and George Murphy. Eleanor was confused as to which was which. But it didn't take her too long to figure out which one was the better tap dancer. So Ellie ends up tap dancing the finale was Fred Astaire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarshaKatz Posted November 21, 2015 Princess, You're oh so right. One of the greatest tap routines ever Begin The Beguine with Fred Astaire and the remarkable Eleanor Powell. Your turn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Princess of Tap Posted November 22, 2015 Star-- Bojangles is our greatest tap dancer. We're not allowed to forget him. Of course, he dances with his little protege Shirley Temple in this movie. He taught her well. And now Star, can you flap ball-change to the next question? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starliteyes Posted November 22, 2015 I believe I can, Princess. In this musical, a star who was famous for her singing did not sing one note in the musical finale, but instead did a tap dance with another performer. Can you name the tapping duo and the movie?

starliteyes Posted November 23, 2015 Getting closer. You got the singing star right, Marsha, but not the dancing partner or movie. Remember I said that she doesn't sing a note in the big musical finale of the picture, but does a little tap dance with someone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess of Tap Posted November 24, 2015 Star - - I don't know the answer either. But if everybody's guessing, I hAve a guess too-- The finale of presenting Lily Mars with Judy dancing with Chuck Walters?. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starliteyes Posted November 24, 2015 You know, I really thought this would be pretty easy, but I guess I was wrong. While it's true that she certainly did dance in the finale of Presenting Lily Mars, she did also sing and the dancing she did wasn't of the tap variety. Here's a hint that I think should do the trick: It was her first MGM feature film and her dancing partner would have a very successful sitcom many years later.

Princess of Tap Posted November 24, 2015 Well you know more about young Judy than I do. I'm more with the Carnegie Hall Judy. But I got your answer. now it's the Broadway melody of 1938. Where she tap dances with buddy Ebsen okay? (YOURS & MINE) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
