UNDER CONSTRUCTION SEASON II

Dance fusion show back by popular demand

Acclaimed local dancer, Taryn Makaab, recently held a short run of her fast-paced dance fusion show, Under Construction, in The Zone at Suncoast Casino & Entertainment World. Such was the demand that Makaab brings the show back to Suncoast for a two-night run at the end of April.

Under Construction Season II is an energetic showcase of local dance talent, featuring 23 exceptionally talented dancers from Makaab’s Break-Thru Dance Company, launched last year. Choreography is by Makaab and Corrine de Beer.

It features an exhilarating fusion of ballet, contemporary, jazz, krumping, tap, hip-hop, African and beat boxing all in one show. These diverse dance sequences are interspersed with performances by SA’s number one beat-boxer, Nthuthuko "Drumkit" Majola, Durban’s krumping crew, Genesis and break dancers from the Floor Assassins.

Shows take place on April 30 and May 1 at 19h30 with a matinee on May 1 at 15h00. Tickets R100 (R90 under 18’s with proof of age). Tickets available from Break-Thru Dance Company on 072 082 4577.
