If only Billy Rhythm and Tharbis Jefferson, the stars of my 1930's dancical, had access to YouTube. Oh, the things they could have done-- like learning a whole routine by watching a video on the Cotton Club's computer monitor. In this case, one that would crush the competition, drive the Savoy Ballroom audience insane, and ultimately win the climactic dance contest. I encourage choreographers on the jitterbug break to reach into the future for those mind blowing steps no one has seen before on the floor of the Savoy. Such as this one by Broadway Dance Center's Tom Richardson.
