The 1930s movie musicals were energized by lively dance patterns such as the Charleston and the jitterbug, reflecting the vibrant spirit of the era. Choreographers like Busby Berkeley introduced intricate formations and overhead shots, creating visually stunning sequences that captivated audiences. Tap dancing also gained prominence, with performers like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers showcasing their talents in iconic routines that combined elegance and athleticism. These dynamic dance styles contributed to the escapism and joy that defined the musical genre during the Great Depression.

What is the most common type of dance in Broadway?

Broadway, or musical dance, has fused somewhat into a distinct style. While different musicals vary in the amounts of dance in them (anywhere from none to a focus on dance), the style of dance also varies completely based on the choreographical, stylistic, and plot-based influences. The overall "broadway dance style", if it had to be categorized, is most heavily focussed on jazz dance. Ballet is rarely used in musicals (The Phantom of the Opera is one exception.)
