Some of the greatest dance acts of the jazz age were what we call “flash acts”. These performers were not only masters of their dance, but also incorporated astonishing acrobatics and crowd-pleasing physical feats into their acts. The most famous flash acts were featured in nightclubs, ballrooms and theatres, on Broadway and in Hollywood films.
There were Lindy Hop troupes, like the legendary Shorty Snowden Dancers, Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers, and The Congaroos, plus tap-dancing flash acts like The Berry Brothers, The Nicholas Brothers, The Three Chefs and The Four Hot Shots.
In their spectacular homage to the flash acts of the 1920s, 30s and 40s, the Killer Dillers will impress you with their high-flying aerials, astonishing splits, and never-ending energy.
