Off Beat Tap Company combines the rhythms of tap dance with the rhythms of female vocalists from around the world in their native languages.

The universal language of rhythm is joined by other languages from around the world in this new show, “Mother Tongue,” conceived by “whimsically inventive” (The Boston Globe) tap dancer Ryan P. Casey, alongside longtime collaborators Kelly Kaleta and Nicole Holloway. Prepare for a rich soundscape of fancy footwork and intricate melodies, featuring songs by female artists in French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Czech, Korean, and other tongues. From jazz standards to K-pop, the diverse soundtrack will remind you why dance is joy – no matter what language you speak.
