Soweto Skeleton Movers pantsula jive South Africa street performers - Breakin' Convention 2016
Soweto Skeleton Movers perform "Children At Playground" at Breakin' Convention 2016 London at Sadler's Wells Theatre. Subscribe to BCTV to see more: http://bit.ly/118KhMg
Performers: JR, Malebza, Sjava, Slender
When children in the townships of Soweto hang out at the playground they use it as an open, free-thinking place where they come together to relieve the tensions of everyday life. The playground is a place where they share their stories through creative games and fun, while at the same time they learn skills to survive in the street.
In Soweto in the 1950s, commuters developed a dance style known as ‘isparapara’ inspired by their jumping on and off of moving trains. This was mixed with tap dance and later became known as Pantsula.
More than a dance, Pantsula is a lifestyle. Influences can be seen in jazz, breaking, popping, house and bone breaking.
This is a rare opportunity to see Pantsula from some of South Africa’s leading practitioners in their first ever UK performance!
