ABOUT
Grab a headset and join the journey of three friends as they hit the road in a rush to reach their own show. You’ll take control of the movement and music while you hijack the radio, switching from K-pop to Miles Davis or pure funk to local triumphs, every choice rewrites the story.
As they pick up speed expect explosive breakin’ along with high energy hip hop before hitting the breaks for more loose and liquid movement, bringing your locality to life.
Choose your sound, change your story.

Note: Most of the show is non-verbal. There is some audience interaction for those that want to.
