After their first production in 2009, the four strong and determined personalities want to give a new dimension to the Hip Hop dance, their passion, and develop and enrich their directory by a new gestures research.
‘‘Welcome to Bogoland where being together makes you stronger, where the collective is more important than the individual, where a "contagious madness" operates, carried by four strange and endearing characters... A crazy and powerful imaginary...
What is Sakalapeuch? A promised land? A buried treasure? A journey into another dimension, deep in a mind?...’’
