El Portal Theatre Arthur Duncan  
Arthur Duncan was born to dance.  A highly visible performer, he is often referred to as an Entertainer’s Entertainer as he performed around the world: a quintessential song and dance man, whose performances are a lively collection of sophisticated footwork and wonderful songs. He has performed in concert at both Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall. His television credits include guest appearances in “Diagnosis of a Murder” with Dick Van Dyke, Columbo with Peter Falk, The Phil Donahue Show, The Betty White as well as being a regular  for 18 years on the weekly Lawrence Welk show. At a time when tap dance was fading from Broadway and Hollywood, Duncan’s charm and talent captivated audiences. He brought the art form to a new medium, allowing American across the nation to experience tap dance in their own homes.

Duncan has performed in Las Vegas, in movies (he was a featured personality in the movie “Tap” starring Gregory Hines and Sammy Davis Jr.), and toured with Tommy Tune in the Broadway show “My One and Only.” He joined Bob Hope on several USO tours and even danced a high-spirited tap in a McDonald’s commercial. Duncan is also a dedicated mentor and shares his spotlight experiences through lecture demonstrations and master tap classes.
While living abroad, Arthur spread his magic all over Europe, Asia, the Middle east and Australia, giving to his audiences a stunning and dazzling show. It is said a beautiful “Song and dance” never end.

He has been honored with the 2004 Flobert Award for Lifetime Achievement of Tap Artistry in New York City, the 2005 Living Treasure in American Dance Award from Oklahoma City University and received an honorary Doctor of Performing Arts in American Dance at OCU, as well.
On July 21st 2011  The Chicago National Association of Dance Masters hosted a very special awards banquet , as tap dancing legend Arthur Duncan  accepted a Lifetime Achievement Award.  joining the ranks of an elite list of only three individuals who have received this honor in their 100 year history.

One of the most entertaining performers of today, Arthur Duncan’s seamless blend of song and dance continues to make a significant contribution to the artistic legacy of dance and entertainment.
