Week 14


Tap Dancers’ Routines

Currently in tap we’re preparing a military march and a tap dance to Mack The Knife, which was a very popular song in the 1930s in Germany.  I really enjoy it, but some of the steps are challenging and for the military march you have to get it just right, so that it’s just like a military drill.  When we get it right,  it’s really effective!

The marching shows an army preparing for war, as Germany did in the late 1930s.  For Mack The Knife we have is sparkly waistcoats, which look great!
