After years of selling out venues on its national tour, Feet Don’t Fail Me Now continues its rise from an
underground percussive dance phenomenon to one of the most popular tap shows since Tap Dogs. Featuring
rapid-fire tap from four award-winning dancers, a one-man beat-box phenomenon and an infectious six-piece
band that channels everything from funk to blues, and rock and roll to salsa, audiences of all ages agree that it
excites, energizes and inspires at every turn.
Feet Don’t Fail Me Now presents a wildly creative view into the indomitable power of the human spirit that
guarantees to leave even the biggest grump in the audience with a smile on their face. Its brilliance has been
marked by rave reviews, sold-out engagements and numerous awards, which include: 2 Sage Awards for
Outstanding Ensemble and Performance, the “Spirit of the Fringe” Award (Edinburgh Fringe Festival’s top
theatrical award), 2 Upper Midwest Emmys, as well as being named “Best Dance Performance” by the City
Pages.
