“I eat, sleep, breathe tap, man,” says Lindell Blake — call him the simple, single-monikered “Blake,” as he prefers — star of “Gravity,” a flying-feet fest celebrating National Tap Dance Day. “I just love the rhythm, how it makes me feel. I can be as controversial, as political, as happy, as sad as I want through the dance. This is the ultimate freedom.”

Shim-sham-shimmy, flap heel, shuffle-ball change, chugs — pop your notepad, people, a post-show quiz is possible — double pullbacks, stomps, brushes, scuffs, the Cincinnati, cramproll and double-toe punches are all part of the happy-feet vernacular of the venerated dance form, an American original dating back to the 19th century.
