Written and Directed by Crystal Field, with Music Composed and Arranged by Joseph Vernon Banks, TAP DANCE features a cast of 30 actors, a 10-person crew, Stage Managers, 3 Assistant Directors and a 6-piece Band, all set to delight crowds all over the City. TNC's Street Theater is Free for all, and is one of New York's Can't Miss Summer Events!Next weekend marks the opening of TAP DANCE, as we perform Saturday in our own East Village and Sunday in Harlem.

ABOUT TNC STREET THEATER
TNC's award-winning Street Theater always contains an elaborate assemblage of trap doors, giant puppets, smoke machines, masks, original choreography and a huge (9' x 12') running screen or "cranky" providing continuous movement behind the actors. The company of 25 actors, twelve crew members, two assistant directors and five live musicians shares the challenge of performing outside and holding a large, non-captive audience. The music varies in style from Bossa Nova to Gilbert & Sullivan.
