From the streets of Brazil – a country where beats are celebrated and dance is a generation’s second language – Artistic Director Bruno Beltrão and the powerhouse Grupo de Rua bring the lightning-fast head-spins and stands, hand-jumps, turns and tumbles honed in the back streets of Rio de Janeiro to Campbell Hall for a totally new and fresh look at street dance. The brilliant all male company will perform Beltrão’s newest work, H3 that dispenses with heavy beats and macho posturing to create a minimalist, almost meditative interpretation of hip-hop in which the movement itself becomes its own pulsating rhythm.
