Hip Hop with Attitude featuring Identity Dance Crew (stars of NZ’s Got Talent 2013 and Silver Medal winners of the 2013 Hip Hop World Champs) and innovative work from some of Aotearoa’s finest Hip Hop choreographers and dancers.

This is competition level Hip Hop with original choreography telling stories of some of Aotearoa’s top Hip Hop choreographers, Joe Ling, Andrew Jones, The Cesan Brothers, Simon Watts and Hopskotch Company. This is fresh new choreography that challenges the perceptions of Hip Hop Dance. Choreographers from Out Of The Box have all had stellar careers in Street Dance representing NZ at International competition and events.

This show melds Street Dance with other dance genres and contemporary processes to present a point of view and showcase a new aesthetic. This culminates in a range of performances that still have the excitement and skill you would expect from NZ finest street dancers, but also provides fodder for thought!
