[...] The Big Apple, a circle dance of traditional jazz steps done to swing music in response to a caller was very popular in the late 1930s, sweeping dance halls across the United States. In practice, in social dance settings, The Big Apple was never done the same way twice because the steps were called spontaneously by the caller in response to the music and the local community. Listen carefully to the film clip and you can hear Frankie Manning calling out the steps.
Unlike the popularly danced version of The Big Apple, however, the routine in this film clip was originally choreographed by Manning in 1937, during the height of the Big Apple dance craze.
Dancers:
Thomas “Tops” Lee and Wilda Crawford
William Downes and Francis “Mickey” Jones
Joyce Daniels and Al Daniels
Norma Miller and George Grenidge
Frankie Manning and Lucille Middleton
