the fame dance in fame

Does the La Vie Boheme table dance count??
If that doesn't count, then the Fame dance.

Posted: 10/4/04 at 9:49pmI like The Speed Test, but I'm not sure how practical that would be for a show in Vegas. My second choice would be 42nd Street. And that is more well known so it might go over better. Also no dance show would be complete without a hot Fosse number!

Every dance number from CABARET. I wouldn't want to sit and watch it though, I'd want to dance! Ooooh changed my mind... everything in CABARET, then 'Out Tonight' :)

Posted: 10/4/04 at 10:37pmI know alot of the people on this board aren't Cats fans, but I am lol. I always loved the big dance number right before the end of the second act. I think it was called "Jellicle Ball" I dont remember alot of song titles.
