People Are Talking: UMS presents Compagnie Käfig at Power Center:
I also totally agree with that! The show was absolutely amazing. Very entertaining and creativity was filled throughout the entire room. Would definitely go and see it again!
Campagnie Käfig was the perfect blend of hip-hop and capoeira dance. The concert was surprisingly enjoying from beginning to end. I loved how they began the show laying on the floor patting, and kicking their feet. This was the beginning of a reoccurring theme of making music with their bodies, and subtle movement making a big impact, throughout the rest of the show. Their precision and use of props created an illusions that I’ve never seen on stage before. I would definitely go see them again!!!

People Are Talking: UMS presents Compagnie Käfig at Power Center:
The Compaigne Kafig performance was one of the most exhilarating and intriguing performances that I have ever witnessed. The combination of Hip-Hop dance, acrobatics, as well as classical music was one of the coolest compilations that I have ever seen. On a side note, besides the entertainment value of the show, it was difficult to find the underlying theme of the pieces. While they choreography was well put together and had a ton of climatic moments, the story of the show was difficult to identify with.
Overall I truly enjoyed the show! I am really excited for the next UMS show. The diversity of the season has opened my eyes to a ton of different art experiences.
