Rumble throws you into a world of hip-hop gangland war and confronts you with an electric explosion of passion that seems to have nowhere to go. With the tragic tale of Romeo and Juliet at its heart this ground-breaking production bombards the senses with arresting and often vicious choreography and pumping grooves. This is a slick and stylish show of intense energy. With its physical, funny and awe-inspiring connection of street culture and theatre, this is an adrenalin kick destined for Broadway, This show took the Edinburgh Fringe Festival by storm in 2004, selling out after just one performance and going on to take a Fringe First.
Renegade Theater was founded by Markus Michalowski (trained circus performer and professional fight director), Zekai Fenerci (Godfather of the German HipHop scene) and French Choreographer Lorca Renoux (former b-boy in the Parisian ghettos who has also danced with Pina Bausch).
This show is generously supported by the Alliance FranÁaise and The Goethe Institut.
