Join the Kansas City Canaries for our next workshop focusing on The Tiller Girls!

As a team we believe that cost should never be a barrier to dance. That's why our quarterly workshops are “Pay What You Can”.

The Tiller Girls, founded in 1889 in Manchester, England, by the visionary John Tiller, quickly became the epitome of precision dance and garnered immense popularity in the dance world. Stepping onto the stage with quick, flawlessly synchronized movements, the Tiller Girls left a lasting impact on audiences worldwide. Fast forward to the swinging 1960s and 70s, and their iconic performances at The London Palladium solidified their place in dance history. Yet, their origins trace back over three decades before the Rockettes made their debut in 1925. With a staggering eighty troupes captivating audiences from Broadway to Paris, and even gracing the silver screen in Hollywood films under the direction of Busby Berkeley, the Tiller Girls' influence was undeniable. Their legacy even inspired European revue directors to create similar dance troupes, a testament to their enduring appeal and John Tiller's groundbreaking vision in the dance industry.

Join the Kansas City Canaries for our next workshop - Busby Berkeley Formations Galore!

As a team we believe that cost should never be a barrier to dance. That's why our quarterly workshops are “Pay What You Can”.

This upcoming class will be an exhilarating dive into the world of Busby Berkeley, the visionary filmmaker and choreographer known for his dazzling dance sequences in movies like Gold Diggers (1935), Annie Get Your Gun (1950), and 42nd Street (1933).

If you're mesmerized by intricate formations and dynamic choreography in pre-code films, then this workshop is tailor-made for you. Together, we'll explore Busby Berkeley's genius kaleidoscopic dancing figures, where he pushed the boundaries of cinematic production with his inventive camera angles and elaborate musical performances.

She performed at the famous Sebastian's Cotton Club in California and other New York highlights.

Join the Kansas City Canaries for a new quarterly workshop!

As a team we believe that cost should never be a barrier to dance. That's why these new quarterly workshops will be Pay What You Can at the door.

This workshop we will be getting groovy with some rhythm and blues. We will be exploring one of the Black originators of jazz dancing Miss Mabel Lee.

A little bit about Mabel Lee:

Mabel Lee was an American jazz tap dancer, singer, and entertainer. She began her career as a child prodigy, doing her first performance at the age of 4, and by the time she was 12 years old she was performing at the Top Hat nightclub in Georgia. She moved to New York City with her mother in 1940 to pursue a career as a singer and dancer, and soon joined the chorus of the Apollo Theater in Harlem. Mabel was also known for performing acrobatics with a chair, which was her novelty act!

During World War II, Mabel toured with the USO as a member of their first all-black unit. She travelled and did shows for the Navy, Air Force, and at different camps, as well as performing for wounded veterans after the war in hospitals.

She was known for her dancing in more than 100 soundies in the 1940s, thus becoming known as "Queen of the Soundies". Soundies are three-minute American musical films, each displaying a performance, and are generally thought of as "precursors to music videos. Played on a Panoram similar to a Jukebox".

Fun fact you can see several soundies played on a Panoram at the American Jazz Museum on 18th & Vine!
