Spun through breakdance, ballet, and heart-pumping acrobatics, a dream of “metal and stone” becomes fully realized as Chicago Dance Crash presents Gotham City, a fully choreographed graphic novel on stage. As a city is taken hostage from sunset to sunrise, only the few left spinning on pure instinct can struggle to survive this criminal underworld with their humanity intact. With a breathtaking fusion of dance styles, 10 million people are brought to life by 20 physical dancers fluent in classic and contemporary forms refined in rehearsal rooms and the subway platforms of Chicago in a moving-portrait of one night in the dark life of urban and underworld America.
