A FiddleKicks performance, with between
6 and 15 dancers and musicians, will entertain and interest
your audience with our wide variety in styles and presentation.
Most of our dancing is performed to live
music, while a few pieces are danced to singing or done
a cappella. A typical 90-minute program has five segments,
often with costume changes that add interest: Traditional
Appalachian, English Clog, Hybrids, (a short
intermission). Percussive Expressions
and lastly, Home to our Roots. Our programs
also include instrumental and song interludes as well
as explanatory narrative.
The after-show audience participation
segment is the audience’s chance to learn some clogging
steps and a short routine. FiddleKicks’ musicians
will provide lively old-time music, and participants will
experience the fun of an activity folks of all ages enjoy.
If there’s interest, the session can morph into
an old-fashioned square dance, with FiddleKicks teaching
and calling the moves!
