Ladies and Gentlemen…Rod
Ferrone!!
By Lawrence Hillis
SALEM – Studying under
one of the most talented tap dancers of all
time,
Mr. Rod Ferrone is himself a truly extraordinary
entertainer, and most skilled performer. He
showed great prowess with his various skills
by switching hats among singing, rocking,
and dancing…or doing all at the same
time.
Rod’s excellence with his collection
of hats was amazing as well, and he spun his
hat from hand to head to arm and so forth. His
humorous dialogue and versatile voice drew
the audience in powerfully as he
spoke about the social restraints we
place on tapping, such as what you can tap
to. To prove his point he danced to Tango,
Salsa, classical, and even rock and roll.
By
all accounts this show was an eye-opening experience
into the heart of an American pastime, the
tap dance. And by all accounts it
was surely a good time. Congratulations
Mr. Ferrone on a great show!
On other news,
this coming weekend will be the solo cabaret
performances of the winners of the Salem Courthouse’s Talent Trials. The
best of young performers including Nathan
Lucrezio and Maureen Cossey will be
enchanting the Fort Salem Theater with their
voices and their acts, don’t miss it! Call
now for reservations before all the seating
is gone!
On a sad, and personal note,
this Friday I will be leaving for college. This
is my last article for the summer. But
never fear, I will be returning on breaks
to let you know what is happening in the theater
world, and come May, my weekly
articles will return! But in the meantime,
The Fort Salem Cabaret and many other
theater venues are excellent regardless of
my voice, so attend attend attend, and enjoy! |
