Adapted from stories by Janet Pelletier of the Cherokee Ledger News, Stan Voit of The Mountain Press, Wade Linville of the Maysville News Democrat, and Jeff Driggs of the Double Toe Times

When the Clint Eastwood-starring film “Trouble With the Curve” premiered all across the United States in September, eight lucky Cloggers from around the country got the chance to grace the big screen for a few moments and share the experience with the film’s stars Amy Adams and Justin Timberlake. Four women from Woodstock, Georgia clogging studio PowerTaps’ Young Adult Team were among those filmed as part of a scene in a “country western bar” where lead characters played by Justin Timberlake and Amy Adams get in on the action on the dance floor and start to fall for each other romantically. In the film Timberlake and Adams, on a date, are in a bar where cloggers are performing. Adams’ character urges Timberlake’s to try the dance style. In the film Adams knows a little how to do; Timberlake — ironically one of the best dancers his age — does not It all began with an innocent phone call that could know how, or at least his character doesn’t. have easily been mistaken for a prank. Tori O’Bryant, an instructor and dancer for the PowerTaps clogging group, said she got a “random phone call” from a casting agent saying he had found her name and the young adult team she competes with through the Georgia Clogging Leaders Association. “They were looking for 20-somethings,” she said. “At first, I honestly thought it was a joke, but then I got all the info and saw that it was legit.” The agent wanted anywhere from four to 10 people, and specifically, girl-guy couples, so O’Bryant turned to her teammates Kasey Barber, Tiffany Stevens and fellow instructor Jana Rickard. The women then sourced out their male counterparts through contacts they had made over the years being in clogging competitions. Filming for their scene was held March 14 in Athens at The Globe bar and restaurant, where the girls and From left, Jana Rickard, Tori O’Bryant, Tiffany Stevens their partners began by auditioning their moves. and Kasey Barber from the Woodstock-based PowerTaps “I think they originally had planned something clogging program demonstrate the dance style they to choreograph, but they liked what we had come performed during a scene that was shot for the movie, up with,” O’Bryant said. “The dancing was really “Trouble With the Curve,” which debuted at theaters traditional clogging, with guys passing along the girl nationwide Sept. 21.

Not so much. “We had about an hour to practice,” he said. “Actually cloggers know a lot of the moves, turns and steps used in the routines. The steps are pretty standard if you are a competition dancer.” Eldridge and his fellow cloggers had to dance most of the eight-hour day, repeating their routine to a live band as the actors worked their scene. They were in a bar known as The Globe, although it has another name in the film, which takes place in North Carolina. Eldridge found Adams likeable. She talked with the dancers between scenes. Timberlake was a little less approachable, at least at first. For a time Timberlake would walk away when the director yelled “Cut,” but later warmed up to the dancers and chatted and spent time with them.

Among the dancers was Pigeon Forge, Tennessee resident Russell Eldridge, and if anybody knew how to dance in that style, it was Russell. He’s 19 and has been clogging since the age of 6. He and his former dance partner won three national titles. The kid knows how to clog. Eldridge moved to Pigeon Forge in January 2011, looking for a dance job. His mother, Donna, moved to the city this year to join him. His years as a clogger gave him lots of contacts among others who dance that style. When the Power Taps girls from Georgia were asked to be in the film, Eldridge got a call asking if he’d come over to Athens,

The grandson of Missouri clogging instructor Karen Robinson, Comer has been dancing ever since he could walk and performed and competed with the Ozark Mountain Cloggers while growing up in Barnett, Missouri. Comer says that one of his grandmother’s favorite stories to tell is about his first time competing in freestyle at Silver Dollar City, in Branson, MO when he was about three years old. According to Robinson, Jason made it through the circle up portion (where the dancers follow the leader and parade past the judges while dancing in a circle) but refused to dance his “rise and shine” when emcee Jeff Driggs called him out. Despite best efforts to try to get him to step forward and dance, all he would do was stand with his arms crossed shaking his head “No.” “I guess I’ve progressed since then,” Comer said jokingly. “I regularly competed through my high school years. Since I’ve been in college I don’t dance quite as much, but I try to as much as I can work in. the meal was much more than a boxed lunch.
