Answer 1

Low centre of gravity, slightly leaning forward Emphasis on the legs Use of hats as a prop as well as a piece of costume. Most of all - very sexy! Stance - slightly leaning forward Emphasis on legs Use of hats as a prop

Answer 2

Bob Fosse used isolated movement and subtext as a way to convey emotion to his audiences. Subtext is an acting philosophy where instead of a character only thinking about delivering their lines correctly they must also feel and think like the character they are portraying in order for it to be a realistic or believable portrayal of the character. Fosse would tell his dancers how to feel and what sort of things to think about while they were dancing.

I am not a Fosse expert by any means but this is what I think the answer to your question is based on my limited knowledge.

Good luck to you!
