ATLAS

Seen in the press:
”...Uppercut Danseteater’s young dancers have dramatic nerve and charm in spades... (In the) short captivating dance film, Launch, .. a young mother takes her baby on a train ride, embarking on a life’s journey... Stephanie Thomasen interpreted the solo World Wide with feeling and courage... Bo Madvig then threw a surprise party in Scrambling with lots of wilds stunts, breaks, and a treasure hunt in the boys’ room... The finishing ensemble piece, The Discovery... served up an impressive orgy of break dance, rock, and show dance. It’s totally crazy, the way these boys dance their asses off! An impressive show for youth, nothing less. Respect!...”
