About
Hot off an international tour, the global dance sensation TAP DOGS hits the road on an international tour of jaw dropping new surprises. Experience the thrill of a revitalized genre of dance. Seventy-five action packed minutes of part theatre, part dance, part rock concert and part construction site. An adrenaline pumped cast turns traditional tap dancing upside-down and into the ultimate night out.
TAP DOGS premiered at the Sydney Theatre Festival and success quickly followed with seasons in London, New York, Tokyo, Paris, Berlin, Shanghai and around the world. Created by Oliver Award-winning choreographer Dein Perry, and originally directed by Nigel Triffitt, with music by Andrew Wilkie and lighting by Gavin Norris.
TAP DOGS is set to electrify the stage as they jump through scaffold, tap upside down, grind steel and tap on water in Chicago.

by B. on 4/23/19James M. Nederlander Theatre - ChicagoGreat male tap dancers. Innovative sets and lighting. Powerful female drummers. A good show to take kids to, especially if they’re into dance. Loud!
Rating: 5 out of 5 Sheer physical talent with a sense of humor
by S. on 4/23/19James M. Nederlander Theatre - ChicagoAs a tap dancer myself, I can see the amount of time, discipline and passion these guys have, let alone their athleticism! The musicians and musical directors do an amazing job as well creating a musical experience. They even manage to be humorous while executing dancing and rhythm with precision!

by Kskkd on 4/23/19James M. Nederlander Theatre - ChicagoI saw Tap Dogs years ago. It was great. I saw it again in Chicago, it was basically the same show. Again great, but... That being said it seemed to be the same show, same tapping on divided planks, same water tricks. If you've seen it once, you've seen it. Perhaps that is why the theatre was not full. I bought my tickets early as a Christmas gift but could have gotten them for a third of the price later on. If you haven't seen it go, if you have still go but don't expect a new production.

by george10e on 4/23/19James M. Nederlander Theatre - ChicagoSaw the show in Chicago. Wish I had seats that were closer. Was in nose bleed section way in back. But it was wonderful. The 6 male dancers were amazing in the way they dance as a team. I would call it a "dance drill team" with unique arrangements. Show runs about 1 hour 20 min and it's non stop. I didn't see them ever taking a break. Kids will like it...lots of laughter from the little ones. There was one routine where real sparks were used to create one of the numbers. Lots of color throughout and the two drummer's with them were great. Non stop eye candy. Get seats closer since there are a lot of face expressions that add to this show.
