Swing! celebrates the music and dance phenomenon which swept the nation in the 30s and 40s, and which has returned to popularity today. The show opened on Broadway and won raves for its music, dance and flair, garnering six Tony Award nominations. More than a dance revue, Swing! crosses ethnic and cultural barriers, highlighting an eclectic mix of Jive, Latin Swing, West Coast Swing, Hip-Hop Swing and Country Western Swing. The all- singing, all-dancing evening features a mix of new and classic songs and over 30 dance numbers--some comic, some romantic, some sexy. Along with several original songs, Swing! features such classic songs as "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy," "It Don't Mean a Thing If It Ain't Got that Swing" and "Stompin' at the Savoy."
