Swinging at the Cotton Club is the spectacular show celebrating the dance and music of New York’s most celebrated 1920s nightclub: The Cotton Club. A visual and musical feast, the show pays homage to the iconic Harlem hot spot, where legends like Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, and Count Basie had the crowd swinging, whilst dancers such as Bojangles Robinson and the Nicholas Brothers lit-up the stage with their breathtaking routines.
In the show the exhilarating dance and music of the era is recreated by the incredible Lindy Hop Dance Company alongside their special guest tap-dancer and the 10-piece Harry Strutters Hot Rhythm Orchestra, featuring US vocalist Marlene Hill.
