The Houston Chronicle says, “Move over STOMP!” The high energy urban spectacular known as “BREAK!” brings its sensational Hip Hop Dance performance to Atlanta for one night only, May 7, at 8:00 PM at the Fabulous FOX Theatre.

Break! The Urban Funk Spectacular traces the history of Hip Hop Dancing over the last thirty years. It is a tribute to this American urban art form, defying definition with roots that run deep through the streets of inner cities. Though the exact origins of Hip Hop are unclear, dance elements hearken back to an African tradition, involving a variety of footwork patterns, spinning and gymnastic type moves.

Cast members are supremely talented artists from the world of "Break dancing," "Locking," "Electric Boogaloo," or "Popping," Power Tumbling, as well as DJ-ing and Bucket Drumming. They have traveled the world, amazing and thrilling audiences in the universal language of the street - dance. Many have been featured soloists in performances with such show-business legends as Madonna, Janet Jackson, B2K, 50 Cents, Ringo Star, Whitney Houston, Puff Daddy and Luther Vandross.

Break! - based in New York City - has received standing ovations across five continents for its sensational Hip Hop Dance show, and it’s coming to Atlanta for one night only at the FOX Theatre May 7 at 8:00pm!
