BirdGang – Ukweli Roach – Vice at Breakin' Convention
Ukweli Roach of BirdGang Dance Company (UK) perform at Breakin' Convention 2014 at Sadler's Wells in London.
Choreographer: Ukweli Roach of BirdGang Dance Company
Performers: Kyle Antony, Simeon Campbell, Lee Crowley, Shannelle ‘Tali’ Fergus, Ryan Heseltine, Joe Hunt, Luke Lentes, Wolfgang Mwanje, Ukweli Roach, Tomas Simon, Chaldon Williams
Revolving around the inner struggle of addictions Vice follows one man’s pursuit of an ‘ideal’; whether that be the type of person he wants to become, or the type of woman he wants to be with, and whether he can overcome his addictions to reach this ideal...
Ukweli Roach is one of the founding members of BirdGang Dance Company and is also a trained actor that graduated from Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (RADA).
Ukweli’s choreography, whilst being largely hip hop-based, borrows from disciplines such as tap, house dance, popping, breaking, contemporary and jazz, fusing them all into theatrical manifestations of whatever music he is dancing to.

Amazing stuff
I seen this 7 years ago (I think) at Eden Court in Inverness, I still remember the performance to this day, was so powerful. Thanks for having this video up so I can reminisce !
Does anyone know the second song ? I'm having a really hard time finding it. At 1:40
What's the song that starts in at 6:15 ?
Listen to this Determine Relationship funny hip hop song! https://youtu.be/t2ilfBUk4aA
What's the song that starts once he is given the bottle
I seen this in New York city. I Loved It

Thank you for making me emotional on sunday at the breakin' convention in Luxembourg
I have seen both pieces now. The full 45 minute extended piece and this one
This is so amazing. I saw the full piece recently on the Friday Breaking Convention special. It was even more beautiful
Memoirs of a month-long tour!
