An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

This Marquee is from the Strand Theatre in New York (on the corner of 47th and Broadway) where the movie, "42nd Street", first premiered on March 9, 1933. When activated, it causes an endless line of singing, tap dancing, and smiling showgirls to appear. The rhythmic sounds of their tapping compels anyone nearby to join in, willingly or not, and will cause people to tap dance until they either die or the marquee is neutralized. The marquee can be destroyed by breaking all of its bulbs, but first it has to be recharged with tap dancing.

The marquee can be destroyed by breaking all of its bulbs, but first it has to be recharged with tap dancing. The only way to stop the showgirls is to neutralize the marquee as neither Steve's Tesla blast nor Claudia's Goo-zooka did anything to slow them down, much less stop them.
