I took my daughter, who is a dancer, to see the show. Her jaw was on the ground the entire time! It's hard to find the right words to describe the show, you just have to see it, period. Savion's talent is unbelieveable. I saw him years ago on Broadway in Bring in da noise. This is a much simpler production, just him, a partner (that he never introduced, wish he had) and a guy sitting in the corner meditating the whole show (that was a little odd, but whatever). The speed, rhythm, and range of his dancing is incredible. If you have any appreciation for tap, this is a must see.

Savion Glover's show was mesmerizing. The ease with which he danced for 2 ours straight was amazing. The sounds that come from his talented dancing were just magical! How could someone's shoes make that fabulous music? At times his feet moved faster than I felt I could really see. I would see him again anytime and highly recommend that everyone see his show. Truly awe inspiring!

Five stars to his performance and tribute to all the great tap dancers like Gregory Hines and Sammy Davis Jr. Was surprised there was no introduction, and when the show was over the lights turned on the curtain went down. Would have liked to be able to buy a photo or DVD of Savion, but I loved the show and hope I have the opportunity to see him again!

I saw Savion perform approximately 11 years ago and it was unforgettable. I was thrilled that he was going to be tap dancing in Ventura County. I expected him to be a bit slower and less athletic due to age. He amazed me by having increased both his speed and his endurance. His precision is unmatched by any other tap dancer. I sincerely hope that he will come back to Thousand Oaks Civic Center on a yearly basis.

Savion is full of joy and smiles, he taps his way though an amazing display of athleticism .
His fluid and flawless control of his body is simply awesome.
This is the second time seeing him and I will go year after years, as long as he is still around to hoof it!

There is no doubt that he is the best Tap Dancer I have seen but there was absolutely no contact with the audience. He never said who he was, never introduced his dance partner, never said hello or goodnight,or thank you. The show opened with him tapping for 45-minutes non stop. The newspaper said he was doing the show to help people from Sandy Storm but it was never mentioned. As I said he never spoke or acknowledged the audience. There was little or no background music to accompany the Tap. He had pictures of Hines, Sammy Davis and others hanging as his childhood idols but never played a background song or did a routine in their tribute. Some routines were so long and repetative that the audience did not know when to clap. He tried to sing and it was dreadful, people were leaving the show and after 1-hour and 35 minutes we also left.

i have been waiting to see savion glover in person for many years. this venue, in englewood nj, was the perfect place. i was prepared to love it, i was ready to enjoy the joy of tap - but i was not prepared for this most amazing show - savion was completely incredible! i don't think i blinked for the first hour he danced. he was astounding.

i wish i could convey how absolutely fantastic this show was - words do it no justice. you just have to sit there and watch this most wonderful expression of joy, heart and soul.

I thought the show was good, but unfortunately not at all what I expected. Quite a few years ago we saw "Noise and Funk" and I thought the format would be more along those lines. This show is basically a two man tap dance show - each tapping in approx 6ft sq space. Amazing dancing, but.....does not hold a candle to Noise and Funk! Found myself wanting more, waiting for something to happen, longing for more Noise and Funk stuff...BUT it never came!

Absolutely incredible performance. I have to admit that I was skeptical about how well a tap dancing performance would hold my attention, but I was very wrong. My girlfriend and I never thought that Savion and Marshall would perform nonstop for over 90 minutes basically without a break, but they made it look easy. About the only clue we had that let us know their dancing was not as easy as it looked was the slow spreading of perspiration wetness on their clothes. That actually seemed to add to the awesome performance we were witnessing. This was 100% real....... no routine change of clothes, just nonstop jaw-dropping dance.
At one point, it hit me that Savion and Marshall seemed to be having a spirited conversation not with words, but almost like one would forcefully tap dance a comment and the other would just as forcefully tap dance a reply. Great stuff !!

We have seen Savion Glover 6 times, and this was by far his worst show

Although his tap dancing skills were second to none, the show was montonous. He did not talk the audience at all, did nto even say thank you.

An hour an half of him and his friend tapping and thats it. He never even introduced the other guy.

Let me start off by saying, no doubt that Savion is the best tap dancer that ever lived. However, his show was a disservice to his fans who follow him religiously. I didn't pay to see a dance marathon, I came to be entertained by Savion while at the same time watch him dance. This was truly a megalomaniacal exhibition of something that he perceived as entertaining. It was also billed as a tribute to Sammy Davis Jr. and Gregory Hines. It was not anything of the sort. This was truly a self centered tribute to himself, albeit horribly done. Apparently, I was not the only onethat felt this way, evidenced by people vacating early. Savion, please bring back the noise, bring back the funkkkkkkkkkkkkkk !!!

While the tap was amazing as always with Savion, the show was disappointing. There was almost no music, it wasn't nearly as entertaining as previous shows from him, and I actually got bored at times. His dancing is truly a feat of nature and amazing to see, but I would've liked more of a show and not just 2 people with a slab of wood dancing for 2 hours.

My husband and I were looking forward of an entertaining evening of tap with Savion. What we experienced was a monotonous, non-stop hour and a half of in your face marathon tap that was to showcase how long Savion could produce.
A second person joined him, there was no introduction to the audience, and it didn't seem to matter that we were even there. Upon completing the show, the second player left the stage, no acknowledgment on his part of an audience being there, and when Savion ended his reign of the night, he turned his back, curtain closed, and off he went.
The comment we heard behind us said it all -"at least we know there'll be NO encore"!
We came away thinking that the star of the night had absolutely no interaction with his audience, didn't seem to care, and honestly, we don't either. Wouldn't see him again- thought he came across as rude and alouf.
