About

Jumping off a 2021 US Forever postage stamp, and the silver screen from the documentary movie, “American Tap”, Michela Marino Lerman will appear live and in person at The Nash for a unique full evening of film, commentary and dance with Lewis Nash and Friends! Michela is a globally sought after tap dance artist, performer, choreographer, educator and all-around creative spirit. The Huffington Post has called her a “hurricane of rhythm” and the NY Times has called her both a “prodigy” and has described her dancing as “flashes of brilliance”. She is very proudly a student of Buster Brown, Gregory Hines, Leroy Myers and Marion Coles. Lerman has performed, choreographed, produced, and directed many projects throughout her career but she holds closest to her heart the shows she has led as a bandleader at some of New York’s greatest music venues such as Jazz at Lincoln Center, Smalls, Ginny’s Supper Club, Joe’s Pub and many more. This show will feature the screening of the movie, “American Tap”, in which Michela appears as one of the “who’s who” influencers of the art form. She will talk about the jazz roots of tap and the elements in our history that forged the tap art form. The evening will culminate with Michela’s exciting world-class tap dance performance to the music of rhythm maestro Lewis Nash. One seating only limited to 116 guests.
