Teo Castellanos combines elements of ancient Zulu, Maori, and butoh rituals with movements from hip-hop and urban street combat to create a gripping and powerful dance-theater work about our primal urge to battle for supremacy and domination. Choreographed by break-dance legend Ricardo “Speedy Legs” Fernandez, and performed to live, original music by Brimstone 127, Scratch and Burn transforms the language of popular street dance into a theatrical whole.
