If you think the cakewalk is just a musical chairs game to win a cake, think again. Step back into the ’90s to recapture ragtime when the African American “cakewalk” dance was popular. Speaker Barbara J Clark allows you to meet the famous African American song and dance duo, Williams and Walker, who took the country by storm and took the cakewalk from America to England during the 1890s and 1920s. Experience a combination of storytelling, music, video, photos and cakewalk steps. Audiences will have an opportunity to try cakewalking, if they like.
