Known for their gravity-defying “flash dancing,” they performed with icons like Cab Calloway and the Andrews Sisters, and their number in Stormy Weather (1943) is still considered one of the most electrifying dance sequences ever filmed. At a time when segregation kept many Black performers on the sidelines, the Nicholas Brothers broke barriers. Leaping, sliding, and s
