Charismatic tap dance legend Travis Knights takes on Mars! Four musicians, two singers, and five dazzling dancers defy gravity at a furious pace.
He has rhythm in his body and the passion of his ancestors in his blood. Trained in Montréal from the age of 10 by Ethel Bruneau, “Miss Swing” herself, Travis Knights has been combining his art with other disciplines ever since: film, theatre, circus and music. Tap, one of North America’s oldest dance forms, is tattooed on his heart and a source of wonder and infinite possibilities. Set the controls for the Red Planet, the backdrop for his most ambitious show, with an international cast featuring some of the finest tap dance artists. A synergistic fusion of singing, music and movement carries us away. A dance concert with an irresistible force of attraction; absolutely fantastic!




His career started in 2000, when he was cast as a principal dancer in the motion picture biography of Bill 'Bojangles' Robinson with Gregory Hines and Savion Glover. The film, Bojangles, was choreographed by the legendary Henry LeTang.
