Vicycle

A dynamic hip hop dance drama performed by nine dancers from BirdGang Dance Company alongside lead protagonist, Ukweli Roach.

Co-produced by Breakin' Convention and Sadler's Wells

 
 
 

Revolving around the inner struggles of ambition, addiction, obsession and grief, Vicycle follows one man's pursuit of an 'ideal' and the compromises he is willing to make to reach it - whether this ideal is the type of person he wants to become, the social standing he wants to have, or the woman he wants to be with.

With original, fresh and dynamic choreography, supported by strong narrative, thought-provoking text, and original music, this piece is at the vanguard of using hip hop dance to tackle mental health issues so prevalent in our society today, particularly for young men.
