Example response:
1. What was the movement appeal of Bill Robinson and Shirley Temple that made the
duo more popular than other recognized acts?
Bill Robinson and Shirley Temple is more popular than other recognized acts because
they are the first interracial dance partners in Hollywood history. In the era of racial
discrimination, this duo is special. Bill Robinson was the first African American to
perform without blackface. He performed with his own style of shoes, preferring shoes
without metal but wood on the soles, and is recognized for his ability to create nearly
any rhythmic sound produced by the drum. In 1918, he introduced his specialty of
dancing up and down stairs, “the stair dance.” As he tapped, he used intricate tap
rhythms on each step. Bill Robinson taught the 6-year-old Shirley Temple how to tap
dance. He was in his 50s at the time, but the age difference didn’t seem to matter to
the young star. Bill Robinson treated Shirley as an equal, he didn’t talk down to her, like
to a little girl. The pair would share the screen for a monumental moment. When
Robinson and Temple performed their tap-dancing scene in the 1935 film “The Little
Colonel,” it was the first time an interracial dancing pair was shown on the silver
screen. That means a 6-year-old Temple paved the way for more actors and actresses
to share the screen regardless of their race. According to Temple, Robinson lovingly
referred to her as “darlin’” while she called him “Uncle Billy.” She maintained great
respect and admiration for the acting and dancing legend long after his death in 1949.
2. Compare and contrast the movements of the hoofers Jimmy Slyde and “Sandman”
Sims.
Jimmy Slyde was born in Atlanta, Georgia, and was attracted to tap performers while
training to play the violin at the Boston Conservatory, so he decided to put his violin
down and pursue dance. He began studying tap with Eddie “Schoolboy” Ford whose
favorite step was a slide, which he taught to Godbolt. There was a sound of the slide,
which gave both pleasure in executing. The audible slide movement was as important
to Godbolt as the sound of any other tap step. As he matured in his art, he studied the
works of the greats, “Stump and Stumpy,” Coles and Atkins, the Berry Brothers, and the
Nicolaus Brothers. However, it was the style of Bunny Briggs that became his favorite.
Sims’s specialty is tapped on sand. After starting a career in boxing, Sims received
more attention with the movements he would perform in the resin box at the corner of
the ring than he did for boxing. He left the sport and pursued tapping. Once he put sand
in a box and tapped on it, his novelty was born. He made a large box, placed a mike at
the corner of the box for specificity of the rhythms so that the audiences could hear his
rhythmic clarity. As the new music started to emerge in the 1960s, and the appeal of
hoofing waned, Sims was hired to work at the Apollo as a clown whose job was to
usher off those performers that had been rejected by the audience. He worked in that
capacity steadily. Sims was invited by Gregory Hines to be one of the lead characters
in the movie Tap.
