Hot Shoe Shuffle is a 1992 Australian musical produced by David Atkins. A jukebox musical, the score mostly includes American big band and popular songs of the 1920s to 1940s. While set in the United States, the show has a decidedly Australian sense of humor.[1]
The musical concerns seven Tap Brothers, Spring, Slap, Buck, Wing, Tip, Tap and Slide, who learn of the death of their long-absent father. Their father has left them a large inheritance, however to receive it they must rehearse and perform his legendary ‘Act’ – the Hot Shoe Shuffle. They must also include their long-lost sister, April, in the act.[2] The original cast included David Atkins, Rhonda Burchmore, Christopher Horsey and Jack Webster.
It is one of the most popular Australian musicals of all time, being the first one to have a successful run on the West End.[3][4] The West End production at the Queen's Theatre was nominated in 1995 for the Olivier Award for Best New Musical, and choreographers Atkins and Dein Perry won for Best Theatre Choreographer.

At the ARIA Music Awards of 1994, the cast recording won ARIA Award for Best Original Soundtrack, Cast or Show Album.[6]
The show was partially rewritten for a revival in Houston in 1998.[7][8]
