The Mayor of Harlem was commissioned, in part, with the support of The Joyce Theater Foundation's Stephen and Cathy Weinroth Fund for New Work.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The Mayor of Harlem seeks to reimagine the image of a groundbreaking icon and hero of his people. Bill "Bojangles" Robinson established himself on the Black Vaudeville Circuit for the entire first part of his career, and was the first to become a Black soloist in the white theater world during segregation. He has faced plenty of stigma, even from his own community, as a result of Hollywood's early casting barriers.

What we continue to see is a man who made the best of circumstances; an advocate who used his earnings to look out for and improve his community; one which directly benefited from his generosity and his sacrifice. This work is created and directed with love, by Tap Dancers in celebration of National Tap Dance Day and Bill Robinson's Birthday. We embrace Bill Robinson as a symbol for equality and justice.

Almost every year, Derick, Dormeshia & Jason create a brand new show for Tap Family Reunion in honor of National Tap Dance Day. The show is centered around the dynamics of taking the idea of a chorus line to the next level where the ensemble is made up of talented soloists in their own right, and the production offers plenty of opportunity to let them shine and improvise.

With additional improvography by the Dancers & Musicians Special THANK YOU to Bill Robinson, and to all of our teachers and mentors who have made it possible for us to be where we are today.

ABOUT THE JOYCE THEATER FOUNDATION The Joyce Theater Foundation ("The Joyce," Executive Director, Linda Shelton), a nonprofit organization, has proudly served the dance community for over three decades. Under the direction of founders Cora Cahan and Eliot Feld, Ballet Tech Foundation acquired and The Joyce renovated the Elgin Theater in Chelsea. Opening as The Joyce Theater in 1982, it was named in honor of Joyce Mertz, beloved daughter of LuEsther T. Mertz. It was LuEsther’s clear, undaunted vision and abundant generosity that made it imaginable and ultimately possible to build the theater. Ownership was secured by The Joyce in 2015. The theater is one of the only theaters built by dancers for dance and has provided an intimate and elegant home for over 400 U.S.-based and international

companies. The Joyce has also expanded its reach beyond its Chelsea home through offsite presentations at venues ranging in scope from Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch Theater, to Brooklyn’s Invisible Dog Art Center, and to outdoor programming in spaces such as Hudson River Park.

To further support the creation of new work, The Joyce maintains longstanding commissioning and residency programs. Local students and teachers (K–12th grade) benefit from its school program, and family and adult audiences get closer to dance with access to artists. The Joyce’s annual season of about 48 weeks of dance now includes over 340 performances for audiences in excess of 150,000 patrons. Visit Joyce.org for more information.
