Ted Louis Levy has been an artistic associate of every successful, African American, Broadway Tap Dance Show in the past 25 Years. His goal for "Swing the Vote" is to encourage multicultural and artistic participation, as his 90-minute production will highlight the importance of national pride. He states, "Voting is the way of participating in maintaining the best quality of your life, so you can swing the way you want to swing. That is what we call freedom. Encouragement for the importance of our responsibility, right and privilege to vote. Privilege that others have lost their lives for. We can protect the responsibility they passed on, pick up the baton, and swing it forward."

Roulette Theater is located at 509 Atlantic Ave., Brooklyn, NY 11217. The show runs September 23,2016 at 8:00pm. For more information, visit roulette.org/event/swing-the-vote-for-hillary. Additional information, including tickets can be found at www.swingforwardproductions.com.
