Company Bio Vaudeville’s next generation! From the deep freeze of Minneapolis’s sub-zero winter, 10 Foot 5 Productions presents “Buckets and Tap Shoes,” a company of musicians, percussionists and hoofers. Original music, improvisation and choreography derived from roots of funk, soul, jazz, classical, hip-hop, blues and rock. “Buckets and Tap Shoes” is a journey through rhythm, music & tap dance. Every show is a unique and organic entity. Part dance company, part band. All rhythm. The multi-talented cast of performers create music with 5-gallon paint buckets, metal cans, found objects, tap shoes, as well as traditional instruments including electric guitar, bass, keyboards and drums. 10 Foot 5 Productions continues to astound audiences from age 5 to 105 with mind-blowing rhythms, precision footwork and powerful groove-based music. Kicking down the 4th wall between audience and performer, “Buckets and Tap Shoes” makes their audience a part of the show. Worldwide audiences speak the universal language of rhythm and music. We need not speak in the same tongue to communicate. Since 1997, 10 Foot 5 has performed on stages around the world including; New York, NY; Los Angeles, CA; St Louis, MO; Denver, CO; Washington, D.C.; Sedona, AZ; Kansas City, MO; Columbia, MD; Charleston, SC; Rapid City, SD; Madison, WI; San Antonio, TX; Dover, DE; Hartford, CT; Grundy, VA; Summersville, WV; Mechanicsburg, PA and internationally in Vienna Austria, Quito and Guayaquil Ecuador, and Helsinki Finland.
