A super-charged dance piece featuring the 2007 B-boy World Champions EXTREME CREW, Ballerina Who Loves B-boy follows a snobbish ballerina practicing safely inside her studio until she is interrupted by a loud band of street dancers who have set up their “studio†right outside. The two worlds collide creating a high-energy, heart pounding, gravity- defying display of technical skill that will leave the audience in awe. The British paper The List called Ballerina Who Loves B-boy a “Frenzied, free styling displays of technical skill. A heightened hyper-real experience, from the tribal, Technicolor street fashions and joyous soundtrack to the beat-perfect moves.†Ballerina Who Loves B-boy continues to performs in Korea and has toured Asia for the past three years. A highlight of the 2007 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Ballerina Who Loves B-boy garnered 5 star-ratings from both the Scotsman and The List.
