  3. Diary of a Tap Dancer


Trailblazing tap dancer and choreographer Ayodele Casel and longtime collaborator director Torya Beard (Chasing MagicFunny Girl) return to A.R.T. this holiday season to share the joyful, resilient, and liberating spirit of tap. The electric new play weaves together dance, narrative, and song to reveal the power of reclaiming language, culture, and one’s own identity. This world-premiere production traces Ayodele’s life from her roots in The Bronx and Puerto Rico, while celebrating the extraordinary and often-overlooked women tap dancers who paved the way.
