Blaze
The breakdancing show hits Sadler's Wells.
Blaze is the kind of hi-topped, baggy trousered, sliding across the floor on it's head – bare chested buffness, you wish was coming home with you.
You’ve got to respect the sheer amount of neck muscles it takes to bust some of these moves and if you liked last years Pied Piper at the Barbican you’ll enjoy some of the free styling the breakers serve up in this show.
This high octane wall of sound hits you with hip-hop anthems from your youth, cut with symphonies, bubble gum pop and hardcore breaks - make no mistake this show has a sense of humor that, second to the blinding Brazilian breaker Neguin, will warm your cockles.
The VJing is a treat, dancing between surreal and pop art, but the show amounts to a series of seemingly unlinked music videos. This is a technicolored, body boppin', fun time show that plays to the West End musical scene, making it a one-stop-shop for all the family.
