The pair that acts as a metronome when you go into the kitchen, then you do a little heel-toe action and enjoy your musical feet.
A song with a solid rhythm comes on the radio and you step it up a notch, add in some twirls and knock out a solid percussion line.
Do you feel that sometimes your life could be a musical?
The Tap Pack, is the second show in the Civic Theatre Season, and it will fill you with envy and awe as the incredibly talented cast and band go through their paces on Saturday, May 2, at 2pm and 7.30pm.
The Tap Pack are guys that can sing, joke and above all tap up a storm.
With songs like Lady is a Tramp and Me and My Shadow mixed with slick humour, slap stick comedy, sharp suits and high-energy tap dancing The Tap Pack picks up where the Rat Pack left off.
These men are Australia’s finest and most inspiring young artist with credits in more than 20 musical theatre productions, motion picture block busters and all things entertainment.
Join us as they swingify new songs, jazz up the old ones and tap beats so cool, you won’t need ice in your drink.
These performances will take place the day after Wagga Gold Cup. If you have friends and family visiting encourage them to stay for the extra day and enjoy this top notch production.
If you pay special attention you might be able add some arm swings and slides into your kitchen routine.
