Blak Whyte Gray:
A Hip-Hop Dance Triple Bill
East London hip-hop company Boy Blue presents Blak Whyte Gray, a daring and poetic trilogy that traces a path from oppression to freedom through dance. Created by choreographer Kenrick Sandy and composer Michael Asante, the production has been a smash hit in the UK, resonating with audiences for its political bite, lean storytelling, and inspiring message of transformation and renewal. The movement—a hybrid that combines popping, krump, and African dance—is set to a multilayered electronic score, and “the whole thing has a cumulative force that’s huge” (The New Yorker).
