AN AUSTRALIAN / NEW ZEALAND PREMIERE OF
HEADSPINS, WINDMILLS, FREEZES, SPIDERS, POWER TUMBLING
& MORE BY THE FINEST LOCKERS, POPPERS, B-BOYS & GIRLS

JULY 2006

Combining pure physical strength and agility with a pumping soundtrack, beat boxing, a live DJ and bucket drumming; BREAK! is set to take on Australia and New Zealand with its urban funk, street moves and beats during the mid-year school holidays.

Featuring Lockers, Poppers, B-Boys & Girls and Drummers Break! has received standing ovations worldwide. Made up of 11 crew who are either street taught or classically trained, Break!'s medal winning champions and club circuit soloists have worked with some of the most popular musical artists of our time.

Musical Director and DJ, DJ Razor Ramon (Ramon Gilmore) has shared the stage with Boogaloo Sam & The Electric Boogaloos, Don Campbell, Ursula Rucker, Twin Poets and Zakir Hussein. Musical Director and Percussionist Shaun Kelly has performed alongside Avril Lavigne, Alicia Keys, El Dabarj and Simple Plan. Nineteen-year-old Beat Boxer Anointed S (Shaun Roig) has toured with Alicia Keys, Rennie Harris and hip hop star Tony Touch.

And between them, the rest of the Break! crew - Angel (Angel Feliciano) Lockin'Q (Kumiko Naito), Aquaboogy (Ontoniel Vazquez), Urban Action Figure (Ivan Manrique), and Dizzy (Guadalupe Rodriguez), Crazy C (Carlos Forestier), Flashback (Ariel Saint Hilaire) and Doc (Antoine Judkins) - have shared the stage with no less than Eminem, The Wutang Clan, Cypress Hill, Linkin Park, Will Smith, Public Enemy, P.O.D, Pink, Boyz to Men, Prodigy, Grand Master Flash, LL Cool J, Black Eyed Peas, Britney Spears and Janet Jackson.

Through funk, rap, hip hop and soul music, the Break! crew pay tribute to the last 30 years of hip hop dancing, from its Bronx roots to the present day.

Break dance is now a distinctive urban art form that is enjoying huge resurgence worldwide thanks to the popularity of hip-hop music. Although the exact beginning of break dance is unclear it is believed to have emerged as a style of street dance during the 1970's that was heavily influenced by a number of sources, from African dance to James Brown.
During June and July this year the spectacular show full of head spins, tumbling and other anatomy-defying gyrations will tour Australia (Sydney, Melbourne, Perth) and New Zealand (Auckland) for the first time.

Break! tickets are on sale from Monday, May 1 2006. Ticket prices from $39.
