Episode 50: Let’s Dance!

About the Episode

Maria Tallchief was a member of the Osage nation who happened to become the first major American ballet dancer. Her story is read by Ashley Thursby, a dancer with The Louisville Ballet.

The Dancing Plague of 1518 began when Frau Troffea stepped out of her home and started dancing. For months, hundred of people danced along with her – for no discernible reason.

All this and more when you join host Mick Sullivan for the fun.
