BREAKING THE CYPHER
A Multi-Media Street Dance Spectacular
BE GIRLS OR B-GIRLS
A group of fiercely talented B-Girls (women who breakdance) re-invent femininity through top rocks, footwork, freezes, and power-moves. Their dynamic breaking is accompanied by outspoken poetry as the B-Girls chip away at the walls of patriarchy one battle rock at a time. Be Girls or B-Girls is about the struggle of these women to earn respect as both women and as breakers (aka breakdancers). Through their struggle, the B-Girls find ways to expand movement and cultural possibilities.
“…a troupe of talented, sneaker-clad... breakdancers break, pop, and battle in a liberating rebellion…”
–Jennifer Chang, The Worldly.org
