More information about Bob Fosse's Dancin' on Broadway
Bob Fosse's Dancin’ is a musical, but not a traditional book musical. There’s a little dialogue; however, most of the storytelling, structured as a series of vignettes rather than one continuous plot, unfolds through movement in every imaginable dance genre. Fosse choreographed the whole show himself for its original run, and all his choreography remains for the revival. Cilento’s production premiered at the Old Globe in San Diego in 2022 before moving to Broadway.
The 1978 premiere production of Bob Fosse’s Dancin’ in New York (then just called Dancin’) received seven Tony nominations. In addition to Cilento, Ann Reinking also received a Tony nomination for her performance in the original cast. She’s best known for her many collaborations with Fosse, including in Chicago, Sweet Charity, and his film All That Jazz.
Dancin’ ultimately won two Tonys, including Best Choreography. Fosse won that award a total of eight times; he also won for shows including Pippin, Damn Yankees, Sweet Charity, and The Pajama Game.
During his career, he choreographed in lots of different styles, as showcased in Bob Fosse's Dancin’ on Broadway. But he’s best known for coining his own distinct style of jazz, with sharp, strong hand motions and angular movements. Two shows he didn’t get choreography awards for — Chicago and Cabaret — still remain his best-known works featuring that sultry style of dance.
What to Watch For
- Three members of the the original 1978 company of Dancin' are involved in the current Broadway revival: director Wayne Cilento, who got a Tony nomination for his 1978 performance; Christine Colby Jacques, who reproduced Fosse's choreography for the revival; and Kirsten Childs, who updated the script for 2023.
- Cilento has choreographed more than 10 Broadway shows, including a little musical called Wicked. Have you heard of it?
- Good dancin' never seemed so good! Neil Diamond currently has his own Broadway musical, A Beautiful Noise, but his song "Crunchy Granola Suite" is also featured in Bob Fosse's Dancin', too.
- Bob Fosse's Dancin' also includes a few songs from other musicals, including Gypsy's "Let Me Entertain You" and Sweet Charity's "Big Spender."
- Dancin' isn't the only dance revue dedicated to Fosse; one called Fosse opened in 1999. That one was more of a tribute — Reinking co-created it after his death — whereas Fosse himself created Dancin'.
