You can’t say you don’t get your money’s worth with this show. These guys throw everything at this production. There is a non-stop fusion of dance styles, from ballet, contemporary, hip-hop, breakdancing. They even manage to throw in rapping, beatbox, drumming and comedy into the mix.

The show starts with a competition between the street dancers and the ballet dancers. They tease and mock each other as they demonstrate their skills on the dance floor, and what skills they are. The content was off the scale as we witnessed pirouettes vs hip-hop vs breakdancing. The gymnastic skills were outstanding. A head spin was done at such a speed, I thought the dancer was going to take-off.

The choreography was amazing, cleverly blending disco, rap and hip-hop with a ballet/street twist. The music selection was excellent, taking us on a journey from the 80’s to current day with hits including Janet Jackson’s – Nasty Boy, Eminem – Lose Yourself, Royals – Lorde, Earth Wind and Fire – September to name a few.

The level of skill, energy and enthusiasm that this troupe of dancers have is awesome. Their personalities shone throughout their entire performance. The audience absolutely loved them and they got a well deserved standing ovation. Highly recommend this amazing dance experience.
