What is the Shim Sham Shimmy?

Affectionately known as the Shim Sham, this line dance is a favorite with tap as well as swing dancers. It's an audience participation tradition at Savoy Sundays, when we start the band's third set with a Shim Sham, often led by Frank Manning when he's in town. If you want a great view of this performance, we recommend you find a nice spot in the balcony.
