In this episode of The Rest of the Story, I’m diving into the dance lives of the Nicholas Brothers — Fayard and Harold — two self-taught tap prodigies who left legends like Fred Astaire and Mikhail Baryshnikov speechless.
From the Cotton Club to Hollywood, from Broadway to Buckingham Palace, their story is one of raw talent and jaw-dropping brilliance — not just defying the odds to rise to stardom, but doing it in a segregated world.
Stick around for behind-the-scenes truths (like: was their Stormy Weather routine really done in one take?), a little Gene Kelly shade, a full-circle Fred Astaire moment, and some real talk about how they got acro/tricks right.
This isn’t just tap history — it’s the story behind one of dance’s greatest duos.
