Josh Hilberman

Groomed by tap and vaudeville stars of the 1930's, tap dance artist Joshua Hilberman has shared  the  stage with Gregory Hines, Savion Glover, Jimmy Slyde, Brenda Bufalino, and most every tap dancer of note. 

Long-time artistic collaborations include mentors Bufalino and tap's great pianist Paul Arslanian.  Together with dancer/producer Drika Overton, and the German duo Tap and Tray, Josh has been creating and performing original ensemble and solo theatrical productions for over 20 years.
