Dein Perry’s Tap Dogs continues to take the world by storm and is set to tap, beat and dance its way through 2018 and 2019. The show features high-energy dance, theatrical performance, and live music performed by a cast of six dancers and two musicians who will bring the steelworks to life in a fast-paced, unstoppable spectacular that is the perfect show for anyone.

The winner of over 15 international awards including an Olivier Award (UK), an Obie Award (New York), and a Pegasus Award (Spoleto Festival in Italy), Tap Dogs is a 75-minute show combining the strength and power of steelworkers with the precision and talent of tap dancing.

Success quickly followed with seasons in London, New York, Tokyo, Paris, Berlin, and many other cities. A worldwide television audience of over 3.4 billion saw 1,000 ‘tap dogs’ performing in the Opening Ceremony of the 2000 Sydney Olympics.
