Tap (1989): Challenge Scene (720p)

[kemetic-dreams]

Gregory Oliver Hines (February 14, 1946 – August 9, 2003) was an American dancer, actor, choreographer and singer. He is considered one of the most celebrated tap dancers of all time.

Hines began tap dancing when he was two years old, and began dancing semi professionally at age five. After that, he and his older brother Maurice performed together, studying with choreographer Henry LeTang.

Gregory and Maurice also studied with veteran tap dancers, such as Howard Sims and The Nicholas Brothers when they performed at the same venues. The two brothers were known as "The Hines Kids," making nightclub appearances at venues such as the Cotton Club in Miami with Cab Calloway. They were later known as "The Hines Brothers."

When their father joined the act as a drummer, the name changed again in 1963 to "Hines, Hines, and Dad."

Hines made his movie debut in Mel Brooks's History of the World, Part I (1981), replacing Richard Pryor, who had originally been cast in the role but suffered severe burns in a house fire just days before he was due to begin shooting. Madeline Kahn, also starring in the film, suggested to director Mel Brooks that he look into Hines for the role after they learned of Pryor's hospitalization.

Critics took note of Hines's comedic charm, and he later appeared in movies such as Wolfen, The Cotton Club, White Nights, Running Scared with Billy Crystal, Tap, and Waiting to Exhale.

On television, he starred in his own series in 1997 called The Gregory Hines Show on CBS, as well as in the recurring role of Ben Doucette on Will & Grace. He would return to voice Big Bill in Nick Jr.'s television show, Little Bill, in the end of 1999. He starred in The Tic Code in 2000.

Hines starred in more than 40 films and also made his mark on Broadway during his lifetime. He was the recipient of many accolades, including a Daytime Emmy Award, a Drama Desk Award and a Tony Award, as well as nominations for a Screen Actors Guild Award and four Primetime Emmy Awards.

Savion Glover

Born: November 19, 1973

Birthplace: Newark, NJ

Zodiac Sign: Scorpio

Savion Glover is an American tap dancer, actor, and choreographer.

Glover was born to a white father who left the family before he was born and a black mother. Glover's great grandfather on his mother's side, Dick Lundy, was a shortstop in the Negro Leagues. He managed eleven Negro League baseball teams, including the Newark Eagles. His grandfather, Bill Lewis, was a big band pianist and vocalist. His grandmother, Anna Lundy Lewis, was the minister of music at New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, NJ. She played for Whitney Houston when she was singing in the gospel choir, and was the one who first noticed Savion's musical talent. She once held him and hummed some rhythms to him, and he smiled and joined along. Glover graduated from Newark Arts High School in 1991.

Glover stated that his style is "young and funk." When asked to describe what funk is, he says it is the bass line. "Funk is anything that gets one's head on beat. It is riding with the rhythm. It is a pulse that keeps one rolling with the beat." Gregory Hines, a tap legend, was one of Glover's tap teachers. Hines stated that "Savion is possibly the best tap dancer that ever lived." Glover liked to start his pieces with some old school moves from famous tappers and then work his way into his own style. Hines said it’s like paying homage to those he respects. When Honi Coles died, Savion performed at his memorial service. He finished his dance with a famous Coles move, a backflip into a split from standing position, then getting up without using one's hands. Glover rarely does this move because it wasn't his style, but he did it because it was Coles' style that he wanted to keep alive. "I feel like it's one of my responsibilities to keep the style." Henry LeTang called Glover "the Sponge" because he learned very quickly with everything thrown at him. LeTang taught the Hines brothers back in the 1950s and taught Glover for a little while before having him work for "Black and Blue," a tap revue in Paris in 1987. Many legendary tappers taught Glover such as LeTang, the Hines brothers, Jimmy Slyde, Dianne Walker, Chuck Green, Lon Chaney (Isaiah Chaneyfield), Honi Coles, Sammy Davis Jr., Buster Brown, Howard Sims, and Arthur Duncan.

He has been teaching tap since he was 14 years old. Glover created Real Tap Skills, and started HooFeRz Club School for Tap in Newark, New Jersey. Wanting to bring back the real essence of tap, Glover claimed that he is on a mission to reclaim the rhythm that was lost when tap dancing was recycled after many generations. At age seven, Glover drummed in a group called Three Plus One. In the group, he demanded that he dance while he played the drum. Glover has a heavy foot for tap. He dances hard and loud in every step, and teaches his mentees that one must learn how to "hit," a term related to one's ability to express oneself, complete a tap sequence, or say something.

…I may or may not have written a (terrible) football team AU of Much Ado during high school. The interests can TOTALLY overlap.

Other slightly shitty ideas:- Henry V underdog football team would be AMAZING like holy shit how has this not been done yet??- Richard III Must Be The Ultimate Track Star Even If It Means Kiiinda Breaking All The Other Players’ Legs- Romeo and Juliet as Goon-style ice hockey (which…lbr is already the plot of Goon between the main dude and Kris Letang)- Twelfth Night Soccer (WAIT–)- Twelfth Night but with rival tennis teams bc the aesthetic would be A+- Theatre Kid / Basketball Jock Richard II drama a la High School Musical but with more regicide- Literally every single play as a Baseball AU but mostly Macbeth. Extreme superstition? Check. Constant lead pitcher drama? Chick. A ton of pot-smoking stats bros at every game acting as witches? Hell yeah. - Also the Henry 4 series as a football AU bc I have strong feelings abt Hal/Harry the bruhy football player trying to live up to his coach dad's expectations and dealing with the stress via partying

Savion Glover (November 19, 1973) is a tap dancer, actor, and choreographer.

The youngest of three sons, he was born to a white father and an African American mother. His great-grandfather on his mother’s side, Dick Lundy, was a shortstop in the Negro leagues. He is married to Nina Glover and they have one child.

He liked to start his pieces with some old-school moves from famous tappers and then work his way into his style. Hines said it’s like paying homage to those he respects. When Honi Coles died, he performed at his memorial service. He finished his dance with a famous Coles move, a backflip into a split from standing position, getting up without using one’s hands. He rarely does this move because it wasn’t his style, but he did it because it was Coles’ style that he wanted to keep alive. “I feel like it’s one of my responsibilities to keep the style.” Henry LeTang called him “the Sponge” because he learned very quickly with everything thrown at him. LeTang taught the Hines brothers back in the 1950s and taught him for a little while before having him work for “Black and Blue,” a tap revue in Paris in 1987. Many legendary tappers taught him such as LeTang, the Hines brothers, Jimmy Slyde, Dianne Walker, Chuck Green, Lon Chaney (Isaiah Chaneyfield), Honi Coles, Sammy Davis Jr., Buster Brown, Howard Sims, and Arthur Duncan. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence
