Featuring original music by DJ Shash’U, Canadian dancer, choreographer and community leader Crazy Smooth’s new piece In My Body comes to the Queen Elizabeth Hall at Southbank Centre. For In My Body, the company dives deep into the culture of hip-hop through the eyes, minds and bodies of a multi-generational company of dancers.
Alongside physically demanding and visually impressive choreography alongside projections, writer Alejandro Rodriguez provides a powerful backdrop of personal stories of survival, triumph, and defeat drawn from interviews that he conducted with the dancers, including DKC Freeze, the oldest dancer in the company (born 1965), and Tash (born in 1971).
Brought together by an international creative team, including original music by DJ Shash’U, Crazy Smooth: In My Body goes deep into the culture of hip-hop through the eyes, minds and bodies of the multi-generational company.
