Be aware that specific choreography is the property of the creative artist, protected by law and not usually in the public domain. There have been instances where things like choreography, set design, etc have been "lifted" and used and the copyright owners have sued, shut down shows and pressed for damages. Unfortunately, in almost all cases, royalties paid to companies like MTI (the publisher in question) don't cover original choreography, design etc.
Get a choreographer. Check with a couple of local dance studios that have balanced programs that include jazz and tap. They're more likely to have musical theatre teachers that could help. These folks, like almost all creative artists, piece together their living on part-time work, don't have benefits, etc. so consider how your budget can accommodate including them on your team.
Best of luck!

I am directing my first musical (well, we did Starcatcher but I don't think that counts). I am pretty much on my own as the choir and band teachers don't want to get involved although I am hiring a former student to help with vocals. My question is about choreography; does anyone have any choreography videos that they are willing to share?
Thanks!
