Broadway's tallest tapper takes to the stage with dancing, singing and tale telling. Tune takes an autobiographical stroll, celebrating 50-plus years of showmanship.

As one of the country's most prolific artists, Tune has not only received 10 Tony Awards, which includes the 2015 Tony for Life Achievement in the Theatre, but he has also received The National Medal of Arts, eight Drama Desk Awards, three Astaire Awards, and multiple lifetime achievement awards, including the Society of Directors and the Choreographers' George Abbott Award.
