Tickets are available on the Joyce Soho website - $20, $15 for students and seniors. Thursday is a opening night reception and benefit with tickets at $50. A discussion follows the performance Friday evening.

Be the first to experience When The Sky Breaks, Deca’s world-premiere piece fusing old school hip-hop with cutting-edge, 3D technology. Put on your 3D glasses and watch what happens when dancers, a DJ and VJ all collaborate to push the boundaries of hip-hop in new dimensions.

Read an interview with artist Holly Daggers on the Joyce Soho website.

“Her leading dancers bring the feminine mystique to hip-hop. They suspend the expected fierce staccato moves in a matrix of lush fluency and add a dimension of alluring mystery to the form’s conventional tough, streetwise attitude.” Tobi Tobias, The Village Voice.

After the show, stay to party with the dancers and enjoy a special dance performance by Future, the legendary House/Waving/Popping artist, music by Deca’s very own DJ Henry C.

An excerpt of When the Sky Breaks was previewed at RE:Vision June 30th, 2010.
