Event Series: BLKDOG

RISING Festival: BLKDOG

4 June @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm AEST

Vital hip-hop dance theatre that asks, how can we fight through vice to find peace?

BLKDOG is dance as raw autobiography. Visionary British choreographer Botis Seva opens his life up for a kind of hip-hop exorcism—a storm of limbs, precise and unruly solos. A heaving fight through the smog of youth, out to where the light peaks through.

Backed by a pounding score from Seva’s long-time collaborator Torben Lars, a drilled squadron of seven dancers take to the stage in hooded caps. They plunge us into a non-stop and gripping, hallucinatory tale. A life story told with fluidity and drive, that asks: how can the young survive a world not built for them?
