Jonzi D Productions in a co-production with Nottingham Playhouse & Sadler's Wells presents TAG ... Me vs. The City, a groundbreaking new dance production created by the inimitable Jonzi D, curator and host of Sadler’s Wells' annual hip hop festival Breakin’ Convention. Jonzi is one of the most recognised faces of hip hop theatre, having already toured worldwide with the acclaimed Lyrikal Fearta and Aeroplane Man. The story of a brilliant but obsessive graffiti writer, TAG explores the concept of ‘physical calligraphy’ - using the body as paint. The result is a show which seamlessly fuses break-dancing, MCing and graffiti art with pure dance theatre, featuring some of the UK’s finest hip hop dancers, an original sound-score by DJ Pogo and state of the art video animation by Ben Wachenje. 31 Jan – 4 Feb @ Playhouse, Nottinghham; 11 Feb @ Malvern Theatres; 17-18 Feb @ Contact Theatre, Manchester; 24-25 Feb @ Peacock Theatre, London; 18 March @ Peepul Centre, Leicester.
