Soweto Skeleton Movers
The Soweto Skeleton Movers take the audience on a joyful and overwhelming mix of singing, street scenes, captivating visuals and their 'skeleton pantsula', a mix of traditional South African streetdance (Pantsula) and 'bone breaking'. All this is supported by a contemporary soundtrack with melodic Afrohouse tunes and pumping Amapiano beats. Welcome to Soweto!
Unbreakable is a promising collaboration between Rotterdam choreographer Lloyd Marengo, London theatre director Jonzi D and the five explosively energetic dancers of Soweto Skeleton Movers, who have long since outgrown their modest status as street performers and perform worldwide.
