Presented in collaboration with The KBL Foundation 

Way back in 1981, Lincoln Center became among the first major institutions to formally recognize the urban art of breakdancing, one of the foundational elements of hip hop, by hosting a dance-off between two local rival crews, The Dynamic Rockers and the Rock Steady Crew. Forty years later, with breaking equally respected from the streets to the Broadway stage and the Olympics, we revisit those early glory days with the current members of The Dynamic Rockers defending their home turf against the Long Island-based X-Fenz Crew. World famous producer DJ Fleg will oversee the battle with classic and modern rap tracks. Add in a roster of NYC breakdance legends as judges and emcees and you’ve got an anniversary evening that no self-respecting old school head could afford to miss.
