FUERZA BRUTA 'Looks Up' In Taiwan, 12/15

The highly anticipated international hit FUERZABRUTA will make its Taipei premiere at the base of Taipei 101 on December 15, 2009. Celebrated by audiences across the world, FUERZA BRUTA is a non-stop collision of dynamic music, visceral emotion, and kinetic aerial imagery that resembles nothing less than a fantastic interactive theatrical experience.

FUERZA BRUTA will captivate audience members from the moment they step into the tent at Taipei 101, which will be transformed into an alternate universe with flying dancers, pumping beats, engaging dream sequences and a multidimensional swimming pool overhead.

Breaking free from the confines of spoken language and theatrical convention, FUERZA BRUTA is an event where worlds collide and reality takes a back seat. At show time, audiences are engulfed in a 360 degree spectacle featuring mind-blowing visual effects within inches of the audience that must be seen to be believed - a man running full throttle on a giant treadmill, bursting through a series of moving walls; tumbling performers suspended in mid-air and gorgeous women twisting ethereally in a clear pool suspended overhead.

"We have had amazing success touring Fuerza Bruta around the world, and are excited to bring it to Asia for the first time," said Michael Cohl, Chairman of S2BN Entertainment. "The powerful, high-octane visual extravaganza has great international appeal whether it is the United States, South America, or Europe - and now we expect it to be a hit in Asia too."

With famous clients and successful world touring shows including the Rolling Stones, U2, Pink Floyd, The Bodies Exhibition, and Spamalot, Michael Cohl, the head of S2BN Entertainment, has an impressive track record identifying, producing and effectively marketing live shows and events.

FUERZA BRUTA has a company in New York that is currently performing their second blockbuster year, as well as a touring company that has played major cities worldwide including Buenos Aires, Lisbon, London, Cordoba, Bogota, Edinburgh, Berlin, Mexico, Rosario, Miami and Sao Paulo to high critical acclaim.

FUERZA BRUTA was founded by some of the creators of the international sensation De La Guarda, including Diqui James (De La Guarda Co-founder/Co-creator); Gaby Kerpel (De La Guarda Composer/Musical Director); Alejandro Garcia (De La Guarda Technical Director) and Fabio Daquila (De La Guarda Production Supervisor).
