FREAK DANCE: THE FORBIDDEN DIRTY BOOGALOO
"When pop comes to lock, when you’re breakin’ on the make, sometimes you got to take a chance and dance."
Freak Dance: The Forbidden Dirty Boogaloo, is a new musical theater extravaganza, I wrote and I am in.
Freak Dance is a straight up, in your face, activated story of how dancers from different worlds come together to save Fantaseez Dance Center, the soul of the streets where dancing is the dream of every street kid, combating the city building inspector, the rival studio, and the Forbidden Dirty Boogaloo.

"Freak Dance: the Forbidden Dirty Boogaloo"
"When pop comes to lock,
When you're breakin' on the make,
Sometimes you got to take a chance and dance."
More sex than Flashdance. More drama than Footloose. More danger than The Lambada. More dance fighting than You Got Served. More pretentiousness than Save the Last Dance...
Welcome to the streets where dancing is the dream of every street kid. Freak Dance is the story of how dancers from different worlds come together to save Fantaseez Dance Center from the long arm of the city building inspector, the evil rival dance studio, and power of the Forbidden Dirty Boogaloo.
Freak Dance is a straight up, activated and in your face musical theater extravaganza.
