MAD DANCE FESTIVAL
(METRO ARTS)
Metro Arts and Mad Dance House present Mad Dance Festival; a celebration of Queensland’s street dance scene.
From conquering stages and comps around the world, home-grown talents are headed back to Brisbane.
With jaw-dropping performances, double-bill showings, artist talks and a community dance class, Mad Dance Festival is smashing down the walls between “elite” and “street”.
From B-boys, poppers, lockers and hip-hop heavy-weights to vogue, krump and contemporary freestyle. This is street dance in a whole new realm.
