The people who brought you
Nutcracker: Rated R
and
SEVERED: The Many Loves of Frankenstein's
Monster
present the action-packed story of a seedy underworld where "The Scent" is the opiate of choice,
cheerleader gang The Tough Cookies terrorizes the streets, corrupt cops are in the hip pocket of nightlife kingpin
Jorogumo and her devious teen girlfriend, and one man and his woman are driven to extremes just to survive. Drugs!
Desire! Death! Get drawn into our world from the
minute the curtains open.
Originally mounted in 2012, Grindhouse is back, bigger and badder than ever! The ballet and contemporary infused
choreography of underground favorite Angela Harriell, combined with the pop and lock b-boy style of street dancer
Nobuya Nagahama, will have you on the edge of your seat!
