April 25, 2022 66. Gwen Verdon & Bob Fosse
This episode is the timeline of the lives of Gwen Verdon and Bob Fosse who's continuous collaboration together throughout their careers changed how dance was done on the stage. Creating a Fosse-esque dance style with Gwen being his muse, learn how behind every great man there is an even greater woman.
I was inspired by the television show Fosse/Verdon, highly recommend to go give it a listen!
