Last seen on campus in a captivating exploration of the percussive world of tap and Indian Kathak traditions, tap luminary Dormeshia turns her attention to the origins of her dance form in And Still You Must Swing. Hailed as “the most moving dance show of the year” by The New York Times, the show captures the heart and legacy of tap dance, and honors the jazz roots of this American art form.

Dormeshia is joined live in conversation by life-long friends & collaborators Derick K. Grant and Jason Samuels Smith, along with guest artist Camille A. Brown. With highlights from the performance, together they delve into all things tap, entwined with American social, cultural and racial history.
