UNTAPPED! to Play The New Victory Theatre, Feb 5-21

UNTAPPED!, a uniquely cheeky Australian brew of hip hop, percussion, beatboxing and competitive tapping performed by a band of virtuosic performers from Down Under, will take over The New Victory Theater stage, February 5-21.

Performed by the Brisbane-based RAW Dance Company, which last shook the walls at the New Vic in 2011, the 60 minutes of dancing is performed to the live sound of percussion and guitar, in addition to the five dancers' tapping feet and teasing shouts. The musicians are also given their own chance to strut their intricate rhythmic stuff, which they do with great wit and panache.

Created by Andrew Fee, who co-choreographs UNTAPPED! with Jack Chambers, RAW Dance Company is comprised of Sally Hare, Kieran Heilbronn, Brianna Taylor and Ginner Whitcombe. The musicians are Genesis Cerezo (beatboxer), Jeremy O'Connor who also serves as musical director (electric and double bass), Brendan Ramnath (drums, percussion) and Mauricio Hosi (guitar).
