World class dancers and a live band will keep the audience on their toes as they blend tango with break dancing for a pulsating show; bringing together two completely different styles of dance while breaking all the rules. The explosive choreography and the captivating music have the dancers (tango world champions, German Cornejo and Gisela Galeassi along with Ezequiel Lopez and Camila Alegre) setting the stage on fire.
The Breakdancers are the famous ‘Bboy Prince Henry’ Henry Monsanto, ‘Bboy Jonathan’ Jonathan Anzalone, ‘Bboy Hill’ Gil Adan Hernandez Candelas and ‘Bboy Issue’ Kwangsuk Park. Bboy Hill (Gil Adan Hernandez Candelas), the pioneer of hip hop culture in Latin America was a finalist at the World Break Dance Championships in 2017, while Kwangsuk Park was the winner of ‘WIBA 2017 International 3 on 3 Battle’ at Alençon, France. Bboy Prince Henry’s Ghost Rockz Crew from Zurich was twice Swiss breakdancing champions.
The dancers will perform tunes from a live four-man band and singer playing electrotango hits by Otros Aires and songs by artists such as Adele, Christina Aguilera, Radiohead, Pitbull, Beyoncé and more.
