It took me many years to realise that the reason why I hadn\u2019t experienced this phenomena in the flesh was because the reality represented in these musicals was a bucket load of stinky hogwash. Back then, I simply didn\u2019t understand why the plane stewards started shouting at me to sit down when I broke into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WLLSqpYyPD8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201c<strong>On The Good Ship Lollipop<\/strong>\u201d<\/a>. (I had the curly hair and everything!) Or why I ended up with bruises and a broken nose when I ran through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SND3v0i9uhE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201c<strong>Make \u2018Em Laugh<\/strong>\u201d<\/a> routine. (&#8230; but oh boy did they laugh at me!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So wouldn\u2019t it be great if the reality of musicals was&#8230;. real? Well the International Dance Council has been working hard on this issue since 1982. They believe that despite the cultural significance of dance throughout human history, it is rarely prioritized in an official manner. So each year on the 29<span style=\"font-size: 13.3333px; line-height: 20px;\">th<\/span>&nbsp;of April, International Dance Day is celebrated. The idea behind the event is to try and attract the attention of the wider public, to the art of dance. In other words, International Dance Day is aimed at the Joe Blows of this world whose only exposure to any form of rhythmic body movement is watching a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=A6PKPMCCwNI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">goal celebration in football<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If International Dance Day can get enough of the wider public interested in dance, then there\u2019s still hope yet that I can get <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=b2ClSABkDp8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a posse of mates following me around town in a supposedly intimidating demeanour the next time I start snapping my fingers.<\/a><\/strong> So spread the word&#8230;.
