Tim Curry, his choreography in Spamalot was designed to disguise that he can't dance.

Weren't that what the coconuts were for, Eileen?

Seeing Lauren Bacall pull a "Bless her she's trying" in 'Applause' comes to mind. For evidence, find the tape of the '73 telecast for "But Alive."

emcee, I agree with neddy, i've seen michael arden dance, and unfortunately, he is more of a stronger singer and not a strong dancer, imho. I agree with his self-assessment that he still doesn't know if he's a dancer...and i've been on full scholarship at SF Ballet school and have been taking tap and jazz classes all my life so I've seen a lot of dance. But of course, this is just my opinion, you're definitely welcome to yours.

btw, twyla tharp wasn't looking for a dancer when she picked Michael Arden; she was looking for a singer. if you saw the show, he doesn't have much dancing. If she wanted a dancer, she would have picked John Selya, who was originally picked as the role of Coyote, but since the show concept changed to Coyote being more of a singing role, Michael Arden was ushered in. Just because Twyla picks you doesn't mean you're a phenomenal dancer...she picked someone she thought was right for the role.
