My fourteenth post will be a few fun facts about tap throughout the years. Before tap shoes were available African American slaves weren’t allowed to play their drums, so they beat out the rhythm using their feet. Tap shoes now and the different kinds of tap shoes then were similar in the way that they make sounds but not the materials that they used, for example they used wooden clogs on leather shoes.During the 1930-1940’s tap had gotten a bigger audience and people like Fred Astaire and Ray Bolger impressed many people and brought tap to Hollywood. I think this website is nice for people who just want to know a few facts about tap but not read five paragraphs about it.
