Legends of the Underground is a groundbreaking theatre production that is set to write a new chapter of social policy for the stage and the streets. A metaphorical masterpiece depicting the plight of those who strive for creative expression, this timeless 3D story of Good vs Evil, Light vs Dark, entertains and enlightens with dance energy, complimented by a cast of over 30 dancers, DJs, live percussionists and musicians. Fusing opera with jazz, gospel and broken beats, 'Legends' invokes the spirit of the old school with its creative diversity and simultaneously frames it in the future with innovative integration of new technology. The result is an unmatched experience of 3DAnimation (the audience experiences the 3D on screen with glasses), Technics, timing and tone. "The audience will find themselves within a virtual world of surrealism and parallel universes," explains Gary Nurse. The thought-provoking story of Legends of the Underground is the creation of celebrated dancer/ choreographer, Gary Nurse co-written with his twin brother, Seymour Nurse. Collaborating with a heavyweight team including George Hull, a force from the highly acclaimed trilogy The Matrix, and one of Hollywood's top character designers, Aaron Sims, who made his mark with the design of the robot for Terminator 3 and then with Stephan Martiniere, the creator of the futuristic city in I, Robot, along with renowned illustrators John King and Frekin Sitnie, this show will advance performance art and elevate the entire culture. The Music - The musical score is one of the cornerstones of Legends of the Underground. They have been fortunate to have assembled some great artists, many of whom are pioneers in their fields including Mark de Clive-Lowe (Nu Jazz), Dominic Stanton aka DOMU (Break-Broken Beats), DEGO (Future Jazz), Bugz in the Attic (broken beats), Flora Purim (Jazz vocals), Rich Medina (USA), Bembe Segue, Vanessa Freeman and Han Litz. |
