Corporate Bits | tap dogs dance show arrives at the venetian macao

Australian tap dancing sensation Tap Dogs is gearing up to perform at The Venetian Theatre from today until Nov. 8.
To announce their arrival in Macau, several cast members danced their way to St. Mark’s Square at The Venetian for a surprise performance that saw dancers Chris Erk, Anthony Russo, Richie Miller, Justin Myles, Aaron Burr, Jacob Stonebraker, Kurt Csolak, Phillip Russo and musicians Noriko Terada, Nerida Wu heel tap, hop and toe stand their way through a routine from the show.
Created by renowned Australian choreographer Dein Perry, the show is an 80-minute non-stop dance and music performance that combines workmen, tap dancing and drummers to create a live theatrical performance. In water, on ladders, upside-down or jumping through scaffolding, the Tap Dogs move to the groove of their own beat as the team work together to bring the steel-works construction site alive. The tap dance show has played to sell-out crowds around the world and will add Macau to its list of over 330 cities on six continents when the show’s limited run kicks off at The Venetian Theatre today.
