Tickets Now On Sale for Maurice Hines' Tappin' Thru Life Off-Broadway

Tap dancing legend Maurice Hines will bring tales, tunes and a whole lot of hoofing to the off-Broadway stage this winter. His autobiographical show Tappin’ Thru Life will play New World Stages beginning December 23, with opening night set for January 11, 2016. Tickets are now available for the Jeff Calhoun directed production, which previously played the Delaware Theatre Company and Atlanta, Georgia's Alliance Theatre.

Tappin’ Thru Life explores Hines' life and career, from working at the age of five with his brother Gregory to establishing a career inspired by such greats as Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, Lena Horne and Judy Garland. His numerous credits include a Tony-nominated turn in Uptown...It's Hot!, Bring Back Birdie and The Cotton Club.

Joining Hines on stage will be tapping siblings John and Leo Manzari and the all-female Diva Jazz Orchestra, led by drummer Sherrie Maricle. The production features set design by Tobin Ost, lighting design by Michael Gilliam, sound design by Michael Hahn and projection design by Darrel Maloney.
