Fosse Dancers Tribute to Ann Reinking

Broadway and National Touring company members of Fosse and Chicago honor the life of our friend and mentor, Ann Reinking. Combining Bob Fosse's choreography with improvisation we come together in a difficult time to celebrate the joy of dance for a woman who was an enormous influence in our lives.
Organized and edited by Aaron Felske, choreography by Bob Fosse, music by Louis Prima (Sing, Sing, Sing) and Don Raye, Hughie Prince, and Ray McKinley (Beat Me Daddy, Eight to the Bar). Audio rights pending with BMG, I do not own the rights to this music.

Thank you for sharing your dance with us.
And thank you so much Ann Reinking 😍

[CarmenZynger]

Ann Reinking left us too soon. But what a life she lived, and left us with an amazing body of work to appreciate for generations of dancers to come. Thank you for posting!

Fabulous tribute and stupendous troupe!

[decodolly]

Lovely tribute and I'm really pleased you name-checked all the dancers.

You guys are still rocking those jazz Fosse moves! 👏. I envy & at awe that you all worked with my Broadway & movie idol, Ann Reinking. I loved her, ever since she played Grace Farrell in Annie. It breaks my heart that I will never get a chance to see her perform live, much less, meet & work with her. However, Anne will always have a special place in my heart, because she encouraged me to keep singing & dancing forever. RIP my Broadway queen. 😪🙏

Aaron your heart shows in everything you do!

Aaron, you are amazing. So wonderful to see the joy in everyone's face here, thinking of Ann, She was a force of nature in every way. Blessed to see you all and be a part. Rest in Power Annie.

I'm going to share this with my man Bernard Dotson, who was in Chicago for about 16 years. I love this! Thanks so much Aaron! Miss you sweetheart.

I always watch dancing. Wow that lady is great. I wonder what her name is. Ann something. She had a great run and I bet she is dancing in Heaven.

In what city is that huge bowler hat located?

[joseenriquealvarez]

Son medios cuadrados. Ja bien por el tributo pero más energia.

That was really cool!! Except for the idiot wearing a face diaper. Really? In your own home, alone?? It's bad enough that you're brainwashed thinking that a face diaper protects you from anything except someone spitting on you. SMH. Other than that, which almost spoiled the video for me, it was a fab video!
