PARADE SHOW FOR THREE HIP-HOP DANCERS AND A NEW ORLEANS INSPIRED BRASS BAND

A PARTICIPATORY SHOW FOR ALL AGES

In New Orleans, brass bands tra­di­tio­nal­ly march to the beat of a fren­zied and irre­sis­tible jazz, a blend of Afri­can, Carib­bean and Euro­pean influences. New Orleans, the bir­th­place of jazz, has mys­te­rious­ly kept alive the spi­rit of the music and the call to dance. These parades are accom­pa­nied by dan­cers who stroll in front of the pro­ces­sion of musi­cians : the ‘First Line’, fol­lo­wed by an audience that strolls after the artists, dan­cing : the ‘Second Line’.

Ins­pi­red by this culture, the group Red Line Cros­sers is made up of a brass band and three hip-hop dan­cers. The show is a street per­for­mance in which musi­cians and dan­cers march along, invi­ting the audience to fol­low them !
