Fantastic! lively! funny! All the singers, dancers and musicians were top performers, especially singer Rojelio Douglas accompanied by the vocals of Tai Davis, Crystal Joy and another lovely young lady. The audience participation at the end of the show was great.

Fabulously entertaining. Some of the most electrifying tap dancing I've ever seen by young energetic performers. Other dance performances highly unique. Very funny hosts. Great blackened catfish.

This was a joyous event. Once it started, it moved wondrously. You could tell by the smiles on the faces with eyes glued to the stage that everyone was loving the show, full of dancers and musicians.
DeWitt Fleming and Jared Grimes are wonderful story tellers, building on each other's words (did I tell you it was improv?) to a funny climax. Jared is one of the world's finest young tapdancers. They brought to the stage a marvelous array of dancers of many styles - do you know how many fine young unknown dancers are in this world? I loved the show! Especially the Jam at the end - open to All who were brave enough to dance on that hot hot stage!
