About
The audacious, vigorous, and highly inventive Brazilian dance ensemble Companhia Urbana de Dança is famed for burning up the stage in an irresistible explosion of breakneck bravado, exuberant, high-speed energy, and powerhouse athleticism. Choreographer Sonia Destri Lie and seven performers deconstruct the thrilling kinetics of Rio de Janeiro street dance, seamlessly fusing together Hip-Hop, samba, capoeira, and contemporary forms.

— The New York Times
“Classic hip-hop moves are visible — the rippling of arms, the rolling on backs — yet they have been stretched and shaped into something new.”
— The New York Times
“Forget the pedigree. For raw, edge-of-your-seat tension, this is the one to beat.”
— San Francisco Chronicle
“Tour de force of hip-hop dance-theatre.”
