Behind the Top Ten Choreography

The opening number for the top ten results show, has to be one of my favorites this season. “It’s Still Rock and Roll to Me” a classic Billy Joel song, which made for a great dance number. Just as I thought part of Tyce’s inspiration came from Twyla Tharp’s choreograpy for the Broadway musical Movin’ Out. I had the opportunity to see Movin’ Out on Broadway, in fact it was the first show I ever saw in New York. I absolutely loved this show, I’ve seen it a total of three times. Anyways, I was excited to see that someone had decided to do a more up to date broadway number. I would love to see more broadway numbers where the songs are from musicals that were created in the 90s to now, like something from RENT. Okay getting off track here is the video of Tyce talking about the choreography and below it is a video of Movin’ Out from the 2003 Tony Awards.

Granted it’s not the same song but I wanted to share it. Unfortunately it closed on Broadway but I’m not sure if there is a touring show. If there is a tour going on and you love dance then I recomend this show.
