This is ONE OF THE BEST EVER "Steam Heat" performances I've seen since watching Bebe Neuwirth and Ann Reinking do it together at a benefit that was televised on PBS. I believe it was in the late 90's. but these three performers are absolutely brilliant, with the woman in the middle, just totally blowing me away!!! Really, this is a brilliant dance, sing, and comedy number that should be given a Tony and a Drama Desk, it's just so good. Ok. That's about it for now. I'm excited because we rarely get to see true, honest, hard working talent anymore. So it's a real treat when it finds you, or you find it! Steam Heat!!!! Hot steam
I have found a new love for Fosse choreography. Watching so much of his work I am falling in love.So innovative, creative, effervescent, joyful, and unique.
Fosse is amazing! I remember this from choir class lol. Chicago is good too, I've seen a couple others of his. I love how good he is with building emotion, sometimes having an eerie feel to it.
I believe the original production of Pajama Game, which Steam Heat is from was in 1954. This clip, I believe, is from "Fosse" c. 2002, which is a compilation of his work.
Sigh. I don't think dancers today can dance Fosse anymore. The control isn't there, stray body parts are all over the place. The wrong moves are emphasized. This piece requires absolute STILLNESS which makes the bigger moves look HUGE.
if everyone danced the same styles then we would have no where near the variety we have. But that said, I hate modern dance which is just acrobatic moves.
since Michael Jackson is gone, you may be correct. MJ was the last Dance Legend.......I feel like we never got someone to carry the torch and keep it going. 💔
I absolutely agree, today's dancers don't seem to get the true isolations and the compressed feel of 50's jazz style dancing. This version was cute, but the original was utterly cool. It's a big difference.
Pleae fill us in on some of the anecdotal notes / stories / from your experiences learning this, and if / when / you perform it, can you post it on You Tube ?
THIS is NOT Bob Fosse's own production!! Bob was passed well before this show// They are great performers and the choreography is close--but BOB FOSSE HIMSELF taught this number to me, and I performed it around the world in the 1970s with Shirley MacLaine who was in the ORIGINAL production!
I mix 1960s music for pre game shoot around for girls' HS and JC basketball. I am gonna try to add just the audio from this to my list of music choices , to see if the girls on the teams and the audience in the crowd will respond/ like/ or dislike it. Trying to present an alternative to the overly loud rap music that you usually hear for this. Wish me luck.
Bob Fosse taught me this dance when we performe it in Shirley MacLaine's show in 1976// This is very close--but still lacks a few KEY moves// Bring me in to show you how to do FOSSE right!! Gary Flannery Bob Fosse's BULL
The Powers that Be don't want anyone to learn to dance Fosse right. That would take dancers of top caliber who have an attention for detail. They don't want that, they want to pass off mediocrity as sterling talent to make a quick buck. Not even NYCB dances Balanchine correctly anymore. Rubies (I think it was Fosse inspired) is an absolute mess to watch now.
FACTS about this performance! This clip was taken from the newer FOSSE (THAT was the name of this revue of Bob's work-AFTER HE DIED IN 1985) show and is based on the original number from Pajama Game of 1954--Carol Haney doing the lead--Shirley MacLaine understudy//HANEY broke her leg-Shirley was on for a while THEN //I LEARNED THIS NUMBER IN 1976 FROM BOB FOSSE FOR SHIRLEY'S ACT//
para mi una de las mejores coreografías de la historia, mi otra preferida es ruclips.net/video/ORI_z-Xi9js/видео.html para que vean que soy muy amplia😀

“Woman in the middle” is Gwen Verdon. Sheesh, you young folks don’t know your musical theater history
If that doesn't make you want to practice for auditions then I don't know what will...
I don’t know why a Fosse choreographed number makes my backbone get shivers, but every one I watch (over and over and over) does it to me.
One of my favorite song from The Pajama Game.
Complete showstopper.
One of my favourite pieces of Fosse choreography. Love the step @ 2:13! And I love the woman's expressions, it's funny, but she's enjoying it!
Did this number in Pajama Game in high school. What fun.
Please tell me more about how you rehearsed it....anecdotal notes, what school it was, and anything else about your post and performance.

it always makes me think of Michael Jackson, since he was inspired by Fosse. 🙂

Meg Gillentine is an amazing dancer with a fantastic dancer's body. She absolutely sizzles in Hot Honey Rag in this performance.
This was wonderful. Carol Haney would have been so honored.
Mas Bah! Fantástico Vi o filme quando guri! 61 anos atrás...

Meg Gillentine really steals the show for me ! shes incredible !
Frickin' amazing. It takes a minute to get cooking but is sure is worth the anticipation.

I disagree. This is the stuff all young dancers go for. (not 'this' but Fosse caliber routines) That's all I see people making audition req's for.
if everyone danced the same styles then we would have no where near the variety we have. But that said, I hate modern dance which is just acrobatic moves.
Kerry Takashi at my studio we’re doing steam het

I remember Doris Day singing this song in the laundry but with a different text: "I am feed up". (I saw the moovie in the sixtees).
Did you mean Patti Page?
Love Fosse
Why WASNT THERE A STANDING OVATION THE WORLD MAY NEVER KNOW
talento
we have to do this at school for our performance its kinda wierd
Could somebody tell what's the name of the move at 0:44? It's awesome!
Josh Rhodes gets the Fosse "head bobble" better than anyone since Fosse himself
Siema Verso!
How is the dance move called at 0:43 - 0:48
Quién viene aqui después de ver a Exselsa, a Huarachin y a Huarachon bailando su Steam Heat; para ver más bailes como el que hicieron ?
@MyPatronusIsAnOwl
tommorow ahh! i'm gonna fail the last bit!
Not keen on the woman's voice..but I love her dancing and the way she moves....
@futureDJ19 haha me too! :)
but 1970's is way after this performance which was in 1954! you confuse me
This video shows a 1970s performance of the 1954 musical "The Pajama Game" Steam Heat number
メグ･ギレンティン好きなんだ。でも、彼女の姿はこの舞台と映画『プロデューサーズ』のオープニングナンバーでしか観たことがない。他に何かで観ること出来ませんか？
Is she from Cats. Did she play Rumpleteaser
If it's Naoimh Morgan then yes
Ok
Family Guy brought me here.
para mi una de las mejores coreografías de la historia, mi otra preferida es ruclips.net/video/ORI_z-Xi9js/видео.html para que vean que soy muy amplia😀
@MyPatronusIsAnOwl
lol!
I thought the dancing was good...but the squeaky voice of the gal spoiled it for me....
It’s supposed to be that way. Lol

This is annoying
So are YOU...Obviously not a musical theatre fan. This was fantastic..
Sure beats a cooking show..
