Breakin' Convention Presents: Soweto Skeleton Movers - Unbreakable


  • The Place 17 Duke's Road London, England, WC1H 9PY United Kingdom (map)
 
 

WORLD PREMIERE: Pantsula dance, Afro-house and incredible Skeleton styles combine to create a window into the Unbreakable spirit of Soweto. 

To celebrate 20 year's strong we’re bringing back Breakin’ Convention favourites Soweto Skeleton Movers with a brand new show at The Place.

From busking on Soweto’s Vilakazi Street to touring the world, this crew have astounded and amazed audiences with their comedic contortionism, frenetic footwork and magical hat tricks.

Now this new work sees each dancer share personal stories that put their Unbreakable spirit to the test, produced and co-choreographed by Lloyds Company and directed by Jonzi D. Watch as they explore township trauma through Pantsula dance, each seeking hope, healing and redemption.

Breakin’ Convention celebrate our 20th festival on 28 Apr – 1 May at Sadler’s Wells. Click here for the full line up of events.
