What I liked

I adored the high-octane moments of pure pounding fury!!! Add in some wicked lighting, some sweet tapping, and a few mischievous grins, and the results were undeniably crowd-pleasing! There were a couple of moments that each of the dancers got to shine and I love moments like that in a show! Kudos must go to the amount of humor that is sprinkled all throughout the piece (whether the performers are interacting with each other, their objects, or the audience). My absolute favorite part was them using the multi-colored tubes to make familiar songs – MORE PLEASE!!

What I didn't like

I didn’t quite understand the “banana break” that happened. And, from a purely technical point, the director in me believes that a rearranging of order of scenes or segments would probably serve the flow of how this show runs. Food for thought…

My overall impression

Cleaning supplies, buckets, boxes, and bubble wrap never looked (or SOUNDED) so badass! My favorite kind of dancing – TAP coupled with a whole lotta drumming?? Yes, please!! This family-friendly, wham-bam rhythm explosion was a lot of fun! And the fact that the audience was at many times, an active participant made this 60-minute show a frolic for the eyes and ears! What a high-energy, strong, and cohesive ensemble of performers!!
