hot

urban dance showcase

The HOT showcase is back for more high-energy feats of krumping, popping, locking and breaking! New Caledonian hip hop crew Posue Company visit NZ for the first time with a thrilling performance, led by Moroccan/Parisian dancer/choreographer Soufiane Karim.

Local South Auckland crew GHOST, highly acclaimed for their performance in Tempo 08′s Fresh Cuts programme, bring their own theatrical voice to the stage with a mix of hip hop, comedy and contemporary dance in The Remedy Collection. Top performers from Dziah Dance Academy join in to add their latest moves to the mix. Get ready for the hottest beats, breaks and electric styles of urban street dance.

“Contemporary motifs blended with funk and hip hop give this innovative piece an urban feel and the clever use of gesture and making of shapes during the group interaction over ‘food’ causes uproarious laughter. However there is no clowning about when it comes to technique.”
- Natalie Dowd reviewing GHOST dance crew, Theatreview.
