A seductive mixture of physically aggressive dance moves and dazzling visual style, Bob Fosse's approach to theater revolutionized how we experience music and dance, while his mixture of cynicism and sentiment remains timely decades after his death. Join one of Fosse's most gifted collaborators, Ann Reinking, as she and a wild, gyrating cast take you through such memorable standards as "Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries," "Steam Heat," "Mein Herr," and the unforgettable "Big Spender." So pull up a seat, put on your dancin' shoes, and get ready for a tune-studded show guaranteed to deliver plenty of "Razzle Dazzle!"

 The title tells it allOct 15, 2009
I saw this review on Broadway and loved it, now that I have the DVD I can enjoy it whenever I want. If you are a fan of music, dance and the genius that was Bob Fosse you will too.
Wonderful!Apr 05, 2009
Of all the Broadway shows released in DVD format, this is the very best I've ever seen. The show is simply spectacular: music, choreographies, dancing are really great. I think it comes quite close to the actual staging and for those who did not see it, it certainly offers the opportunity to have a clear idea about it. Technically, the dvd filled up all my expectations: it's very well done. Don't miss the chance to get it, specially to Broadway musical fans.

This is a great DVD showing what a wonderful chorographer Bob Fosse was. Ben Vereen, Ann Reinking and cast do a dynamic job of his dance steps. I would highly recommend this DVD.

Knock-out dance routines - a must-have for musical theatre buffsSep 15, 2008
Lovers of musical theatre will need no introduction to Bob Fosse. FOSSE is a tribute to his work, staged on Broadway, a 1999 Tony Award winner for Best Musical and the DVD was filmed on stage in 2001 by PBS. The show recreates dance numbers that Fosse choregaphed for musicals such as THE PAJAMA GAME, CABARET, SWEET CHARITY, PIPPIN, CHICAGO right through to dance-only shows such as DANCIN' (which itself is due for a Broadway revival). DVD transfer is excellent, in high definition widescreen. Chapter selection has been thoughtfully designed, listing each acts numbers (there are three acts) and bonus feature includes an interview with Dana Moore, Ann Reinking and Ben Vereen. A must-have for all lovers of musical theatre!
