Fosse (musical)

Fosse is a musical revue celebrating the choreography of Bob Fosse. It showcases excerpts from Fosse's extensive career, including numbers from musicals like Sweet Charity, Chicago, Pippin, Dancin', and The Pajama Game, as well as films such as Cabaret.

The revue is characterized by its high-energy performances and the distinctive Fosse style, which includes elements like turned-in knees, hunched shoulders, jazz hands, and the use of hats and props.
