Contemporary dance innovator Nick Power’s brand-new collaboration brings together two leading dance crews for an exhilarating immersion in global hip hop dance culture.
All-female Parisian crew Lady Rocks specialises in intricately choreographed and combative battle sets. Sydney group Riddim Nation blends Pacifika, African and Asian influences into its eclectic and cheeky style.
Each crew is unique, but both find power, expression and camaraderie in the ever-evolving global language of hip hop dance.
Collaborating for the first time in a cypher set to music by Sydney composer Jack Prest, Two Crews puts Lady Rocks and Riddim Nation to the test in a high energy display of fierce style, crew tactics and party rocking fun and funk.
