    Classically trained ballerina here, and though I recognized the craft behind tap, I never thought it could hold this much soul. Inspiring performance by Ms. Dorrance and the band, and stunning decision by Colbert & co!

    Couldn't help it, started clapping in front of the computer screen when they wrapped this up. Sensational. So alive.

    Jesus fucking Christ Stephen's show is the best. When the time will come and I will get a chance to visit new york my top priority will be to sit in the audience there, such a classy late night show.

    Thank you Stephen for focusing the spotlight on other forms of art and entertainment instead of the usual Hollywood drab that your competitors are so obsessed with. Keep on showing us more stuff like this!!!

    Michelle, can i say that i have always found tap interesting, but when watching this, i genuinely was moved to tears. The dedication, mastery and stagecraft was so amazing that i legitimately could not help but shed some tears. I hope one day to see you live.

    Having taken classes with her, I can tell you Michelle Dorrance is by far one of the best out there as far as pure technique, style, and musicianship. And she is definitely my favorite choreographer.

    As someone who personally knows Michelle and considers her a friend, I can honestly tell the youtube community this, that as great of a performer she is, she's an even better person. She is the definition of hard work and staying humble. Go "Florence" Dorrance. You killed it!!!

    Transitioning from performing with Yo Yo Ma, to accompanying this tap dancer, Jon Batiste is showing an amazing level of musicianship to an unprecedentedly vast audience. I hope that the show at some point features some music educators, or promotes music education and funding for the arts - because now more than ever it is hard for artists to make a living.

    Honestly this show just makes you happy. It's not even a late show, it's a celebration of culture, music, games, and Stephens own take on the world. Great job

  • @sophieashton4559

    OH MY GOD this show though. Jon Batiste, Stay Human and Michelle Dorrance...... This was MAGIC. Stephen, you are the gatekeeper of all good things on television. How can you be KILLING it like this? This show is UNBELIEVABLE. It's impossible to be THIS good at what you do. My goodness.

    It's not always that someone can come around and not only open my eyes to a form of art that I never payed attention to, but also bring me to a whole new level of appreciation for it. She is fantastic. Thank you Stephen for including something so special in your show.
