It was 2008, and my husband and I went to see a performance called Buckworld One. It was written and directed by Rickerby Hinds, the chair of the UCR Department of Theatre, Film and Digital Production. The show featured local krump dancers who blew me away. What I remember most about the night was how the dancers often moved across the stage in circles, throwing their energy back and forth to each other. Something about this type of movement felt right. I knew I wanted to see more krumpin’ on stage.
