These works show none of the joins that can plague crossover projects. The dancers have an easy athleticism, at home with everything from street dance acrobatics to mooching contemporary steps.

With an all-male strong cast of 8, '2Faced Dance Company' brings a stunning and captivating contemporary dance piece with an electrifying vibe.
