CHOREO CHAMPIONSHIP

 Saturday OCTOBER 28th 2017

We’ve concocted a Hip Hop choreo competition, a la Gadfly. 5 crews/teams will have a shot at a contract to perform on the award-winning theatrical stage known as TUDS Urban Dance Culture Festival. Each of 5 teams in the competition will have their main choreographer as a judge representing them (Highest and lowest marks are discarded for fairness). They will sit on the judging panel to up & unite our scene based on 5 clear ingredients: One-of-a-kindness, Panache, Technique, Arsenal, & Unforgettability. 5 spots now available… Might want to submit your crew now.

Sponsored by: Gadfly Creative Works and The Daniels Corporation 

  • 1st Place: Money Prize + Spot on the Mainstage on Sunday, Oct 29th along side Professional companies.
