Tribute to Ann Reinking

Ann Reinking's devotion to her craft was incredible. Her legacy isn't just that she was a fantastic dancer but she was a huge force in preserving Bob Fosse's work for future generations and Theatre as a whole. Her love for dance can be felt by those outside of the theatre world as well. Inspiring us all to put ourselves into what were passionate about. Every drop of sweat and love that we have for it.
This video has a few pieces from her career of stage, screen, and TV specials. Edited to the song "Everything old is new again" by Peter Allen, from the movie "All That Jazz", and the second song is from the Broadway musical Chicago, "Hot-Honey-Rag" by John Kander & Fred Ebb.
Here's to Ann Reinking!

I met her back in the 70's when I was an RN and Bob Fosse was a patient and she came to visit him. She was so sweet and kind...I remember that to this day!

[@fearandloathing75]

That was part of the series about Fosse and Version with same title. Annie was very young at that time. Very young and innocent at that time. She rose to the top because she was also an awesome dancer. She could do that sexy Fosse style so well Plus some had tricks of her own. Annies legs seemed supernatural. She danced along side with all the greats of her time from all over the world. I love her for always. What an accomplishment she achieved in her lifetime. My lifetime. I could only dream of owning such an extraordinary gift. And so I do dream. Thank you Annie for that too. Rest In Peace Exquisite Annie.

[@kdaniels79]

That’s wild. She was never a nurse, but in the miniseries, as Fosse’s then girlfriend, she would go visit him in the hospital

[@ashleighmuldrow7837]

Just found out she passed. It was a privilege to have seen her dance. The dance world is at a loss.

[@teresajohnson6419]

She was a magnificent dancer. Her love of dance and choreography is a LOVE to her mind, body and soul. I put her next to Baryshnikov. I have wondered if they ever met. Imagine the dance between the two. I am a dancer and she was a idol. Thank you for showing the world, "The Love of Dance " Truly a picture of beauty. Bob would be so proud. Bless your dancing soul.

[@1jacqueline234]

Ann was blessed with an amazing talent that is unsurpassed. Her movement and precision was perfection!

[@marthawood3367]

Gone too soon... One of the best dancers EVER!

[@davidpellegrene1133]

She truly was an amazing talent. A great performer in everyway. God Bless Ann.

[@sdbrimer42]

Those legs go on forever. Lovely lady - she will be missed.

[@jessiehernandez9468]

Yes, Ms Reinking amazing dancer and artist.

[@BATFAERY]

Thank you sooooo much, Andrew. Everyone who ever saw this beautiful creature felt wonderful and uplifted. She is flying with the Angels.

[@gillianc2895]

Such a wonderful tribute, to such a great dancer. When I think I Bob Fosse, she will always come to mind.

[@krpbdp]

Will never forget "Over Here" and being absolutely knocked out by one dancer and that, of course, was Ms. Reinking.

[@patrickols]

She truly was an amazing dancer…in the golden age of Hollywood she would have been a star at MGM to rival all others

[@deborahgoslin5858]

The best. Thank you

[@danielhousset3210]

Thanks so much ! Merci beaucoup

[@jswjanjan]

Thank you so much for this. Beautiful.☆♡☆♡☆

[@traceeteeter9875]

I just found out. 😩😩😩😩. God almighty what a talent.

[@thesilversurfer7136]

As a past dancer myself she had the most amazing timing, style. Her moves are sheer perfection.

[@thursdaysavage7562]

Truly amazing!

[@greglongphee2034]

One remarkably talented lady.

[@annie-jo5dc]

What a talented and lithe lady. Great stuff

[@nursebridgie]

This is beautiful. ❤

[@enolamsamoht]

I think I'll be listening to the 1996 revival of Chicago, non-stop for the next month now.

[@geoffryallan7261]

Yes - even the leading ladies of today still don’t have that “thing” that she has/had - fosse and all that is gone, but they left an incredible legacy

[@StuPony111]

So underrated

[@robertowarren7007]

I had such a crush on her!

[@c0lleenkane495]

All that jazz

[@freddiecalabro]

There was the room where GOD created the mere mortals AND THEN THE ANN REINKING room. ONE OF THE MOST TALENTED DANCERS EVER. She would have been a superstar if she had been on the MGM roster of stars.

[@adailydaughter6196]

Aww... "we got Annie" 😏

[@irenakaczmarek]

👍👍👍😊⚘️

[@dant.6364]

wow! @1:45

[@ficklekitty2169]

How sad. I watched "All That Jazz" when I was much too young to understand it, but I loved watching Ann Reinking dance. What a touching compilation. May she RIP.

[@faerieSAALE]

Sometimes, God gives us gifts in human form - Ann Reinking was one such glorious gift for all of humanity. RIP Ann - we loved you.

[@cowboy4jesus3N1]

Beautifully said

[@tiffsaver]

I believe that what we call "angels" are just human beings sent by God to do his work... It could even be YOU!!

[@hyperman1010]

what a great tribute to an exceptional dancer. wow! i forgot how wonderful she in the movie annie, she truly danced on air. the stuff with her and bebe neuwirth are exceptional and fresh, considering the two followed gwen and chita. a great talent and always lovely. greatly missed. thank you, this is as lovely as she was!

[@MsCchapman]

Ann = Poetry in perpetual motion= Perfection

[@victoriabarclay3556]

She was everything we wanted to be as dancers in the 70’s and 80’s

[@latinwaterpoloperez]

Had no idea she passed ! A true dancing legend!

[@saradecapua3264]

I saw her in Pippin on Broadway. She was a joy to watch. I had not heard of her passing.

[@phoneactress3725]

She was truly phenomenal!

[@shibumi5210]

She was perfect in "All That Jazz"...

[@ajzepp8976]

Awww, she passed? I literally just saw All that Jazz for the first time this past weekend. What an incredible film. She was fantastic. Sorry to hear that she is no longer with us.

[@tinafarrar2527]

Those legs were longer than the average dancer & she was beautiful. R.I.P.!

[@melsongrant5545]

Thank you Andrew. I absolutely fell in love with Ann when I watched her in All That Jazz recently. She was an amazing dancer and you have captured her talents beautifully. Well done!

[@stephaniestanley8041]

This is wonderfully & brilliantly edited. Her unearthly beauty was matched by her enormous talent.

[@rodapp9499]

This tribute is excellent. Thank you! I used to see Ann and Bebe leave the Golden Gate Theater after the show there. Ann could have been Diana Rigg's daughter.

[@peterschulze491]

This is a lovely (and thrilling) tribute to Ms Reinking!

[@andrewmccarthy110]

Thanks!

[@barbarawest4489]

Her memory is a blessing.

[@joanwood9480]

Ann Reinking with Bebe Neuwirth then Tommy Tune. Just amazing.

[@vanessaheine8093]

The editing on this is 10/10.

[@tetsushin126]

Who edited this movie? Every part is perfectly arranged with same tempo, it is so enjoyable edit, I love it, thanks.

[@tywilliamnash5078]

I'm sorry to say that I don't even know who this woman is. I've never heard of her, and if I did ever see her in some erstwhile or significant film dance number, I never put the name and the face together. She's a very good looker and she's quite an accomplished dancer and apparently it. seems she's an accoladed persona and character actress. I'm going to be looking forward to researching into all that the internet has online of this incredible lady.

[@lestyler9658]

La boheme

[@margueritegastanaga5156]

I saw Ann on Broadway. She doesent leap. She flys. One amazing dancer. She will be missed. 1 of a kind.

[@innervisions1828]

She was Bob Fosse's girlfriend.

[@xavierminchello8431]

WTF, WERE HAVE YOU BEEN. Over at MAR-O-LARGO.?

[@tigger927]

My idol! I was crushed when I heard she passed! She will be sorely missed! One of a kind!

[@navigator3744]

I'm a working class peasant and have never been into this kind of dancing, but when I saw "All That Jazz" Ann Reinking gave me a new appreciation for it.

[@Skedawg88]

I am a ski instructor and had Ann for a private lesson. She was very nice and skied quite well. It was a pleasure to be in her company.

[@tiffsaver]

That sweet dance scene in "All That Jazz" that she did with the little girl was my absolute favorite of the entire movie. RIP, a truly great performer.

[@darlahelland2912]

That little girl was Bob Fosse's daughter

[@tiffsaver]

@@darlahelland2912 No wonder!! "Fruit doesn't fall far from the tree."

[@MrReded69]

@@darlahelland2912 That was Erzebet Foldi playing a fictionalized version of Nicole Fossi. Nicole, who wasn't a professional damcer yet, had a small part in the movie as an extra. She did go on to be a Broadway veteran and choreographer. She was choreographer and a producer on FX's FOSSE/VERDON.

[@thomascondon9549]

My own favorite scene…like Roy Scheider’s Bob Fosse, he couldn’t help but watch with teary eyed appreciation of the performance in that 2-tiered living room.❤

[@richardmayora1289]

She was just sensational in Dancin. Legs that went on forever.

[@keithcall7795]

She was really something. I just wish I had seen her in "Chicago". She is amazing in "All That Jazz". Great tribute.

[@brandonburrell8517]

She was magnificent. What a gift God gave us. Rest in peace.

[@pascalelambert289]

She passed. I didn't know. For me, she will stay Grace Farrell in Annie. In france, she is not famous.

[@kelvingobble3504]

Thank you for bringing 85K+ fans together to pay tribute to Miss Reinking.

[@sb4759]

Amazing and rare dancer with style and grace. Just WOW!

I got goosebumps on the last song, the finale from"Chicago:". Gosh, she was great.

[@do9138]

Thank you. Beautiful editing work and great clips of one of the greats in motion.

[@andrewmccarthy110]

[@BobSmith-dk8nw]

Died in her sleep at 71 ... no reason given why. She was really something. She really was. .

[@nicolettaseverene2460]

I love the quick clips of Ann and Jeff Hyslop, two of my childhood dancing idols!

[@Andrew-rabatinNet]

She was one of a kind. Thanks for the Tribute.

[@gregsalcedo4857]

Wished that the one with Bebe Neuwirth was shown continuously.

Wow what a fabulous tribute, incredible dancer, didn't know her name but was aware of her talent and had seen her in Annie.

[@francescarubino9453]

Fosse/Verdon brought me here. I wanted to learn more about Ann Reinking and Bob Fosse. What an amazing dancer! Her legs are ssooo long! This is a lovely tribute. Thank you for sharing.

[@freddiecalabro]

She🌞glowed when she danced. And her legs went on for yards but she was only 5’6’’.

[@RickGTI2019]

I got to see Ann on broadway in Dancing, best show ever !

[@dkphillips1654]

Really well put together! Timing is excellent. Good job!

[@andrewmccarthy110]

Thanks!

[@sarahmccarthy3393]

Ann and her sister were the best possible mentors I could have had .

[@alanstefanoski5676]

Never got to meet her but I think I've seen about everything she did to me she's the all time Broadway legend ❤

[@groovygirl23]

I first saw her dance when I was 14. Pippin. I'd never seen anyone move with her grace, confidence and style.

[@zizzie4081]

Legs up to her chin

She. Was. Magic.❤

[@suehofkamp8594]

She was beautiful and quite talented.

[@PhyllisCambria]

I remember thinking the first time I saw her dance, that she moved like no one else. (It didn't hurt that she was all legs! :) ) About 30 years ago I was in the theater district and saw the back of this woman as she was talking to two men. She suddenly shifted her weight and in that moment I realized "THIS IS ANN REINKING!" She turned as I was passing her and I wanted to tell her how amazing she was, but I didn't want to interrupt her conversation. Now I'm sad that I didn't tell her.

[@dovessoIscanon]

I remember when I was little watching her in _Annie_ on my CD player and thinking she was the prettiest woman in the world...

[@anaflaviapincernopouza9218]

R.I.P. Lovely and Beautiful Ms. Ann Reinking ! Bob, Gwen and the Others might have been waiting for you in the Heaven and you all must be dancing for the Lord and the Angels now..😢😢😢

[@fearandloathing75]

I can't get enough of this delicious fabulous gifted unique dancing diva divine. What a superb athlete she will always be remembered in my book. I will never tire of watching her head to toe making it look so natural and her strength is nothing of short of supernatural. Those legs are legendary. Awesome goddess of dance. Dancing on the big big time stage now. I miss her. Can you tell Im a fan?

[@user-jl7ym4en5b]

Breaks my heart. Such energy, a great outlook on life. I had no idea of her own muscle issues, nor that her son was ill. She just would bring light into a room. RIP, so young and so, so missed.
