Urbanite Dance Showcase

Description

Welcome to the temple of the arts for the communion of dance, music, culture. URBANITE Dance Showcase will premiere at the The Amphitheatre at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, an outdoor theater with design resemblance of the Greek Theater of Dionysus, a temple of the arts hosting some of the first festivals of music and dance. Fitting for URBANITE, which will showcase 15+ dance groups performing primarily hip hop choreography with additional styles featured from Latin to contemporary dance, all brought together with DJ sets and special guests. The show’s experience combines all elements of the culture to create an electric event that is both potent enough for die-hard dance fans and accessible enough for the casual admirer. With shared passions of bringing art, culture, and dance to the community, URBANITE, produced by Roxwell Curates, has proudly partnered with Krannert Center and the UIUC Department of Fine and Applied arts for this event.
