Brian Sebert at Bruno Walter Auditorium

Simultaenous Tap Dancing

This evening Brian Sebert, who is the dance critic for the New York Times, promoted his new book about the history of tap dancing by giving a lecture on the subject at the Bruno Walter Theater. He not only discussed the greatest tap dancers of all time, but also, being a trained dancer, demonstrated their signature steps himself. This was the first lecture I have been to which was delivered by someone who was, simultaneously, tap dancing, and I hope it is not the last.
