Hip hop along to see great dancing

For the first time ever in West Sussex, T21 Dance is presenting its dynamic street and hip hop dance performances from across the south.

Its Raise Da Roof show takes place on Saturday at 3pm and 7pm.

More than 300 young dancers descend upon the Alexandra Theatre for a performance event that celebrates the achievements and skills of young hip hop and street dancers from across the region.

Hosted by JP Omari (Strictly Dance Fever 2006) Raise Da Roof will see performances from dancers aged six years to adults.

Founder of T21Dance, Vikkie Steege said: "Events like Raise Da Roof can inspire young dancers to develop and progress their skills, as well as raise the expectations of high-quality street dance emerging from our communities.

"I feel it is important we give credit to the young dancers and celebrate the positive impact that hip hop dance can have on them."

Kirsty Bell, dance development officer for West Sussex County Council added: "As leaders in Street and Hip Hop dance in the southeast, I am so excited that T21 are holding this show in West Sussex."

Tickets can be obtained from the Alexandra Theatre at a cost of 5. Contact the box office on 01243 861010.
