Boom Bap Tourism

Full-length “afictional” solo piece. Kinetic storytelling. Performance poetry in a bboy stance. A letter to my past self... a reckoning of the present self. A full collaboration with my dear friend (and now a Tony-Award winning one!) Mikaal Sulaiman. I was awarded a Rocky Award (Philly dance award) for this one — Thank you Karl Schappell.
