I went to see this show after catching a preview at The List's Fringe launch party. It's returning from last year, when apparently everyone loved it. I was not disappointed.
Zoonation's "narrative street dance" is the whole package - fantastic breakdancing, obviously, but also fun, subverted fairy tales, clever minimalist sets, even a sprinkling of cute local children from their hip hop empowerment work in schools. There was some solid drag. I especially appreciated seeing lots of women, and not just as backup dancers - until now, my only exposure to women breakdancing had been through Shameless favourite shebang!
Buy tickets (while you still can!) here. Bring earplugs.
