Fly Dance Company: The Gentlemen of Hip Hop

July 5 | Miller Outdoor Theatre

Whether it's Times Square, Discovery Green, the Kennedy Center, or just the soundstage at KHOU's Great Day Houston, these Houston-based "theatrical hip-hop" dancers bring the B-boy realness to whatever venue they can find. As Executive Director Jorge Casco told Houstonia's Chris Gray, dancing is "a way for them to express themselves, and it allows them to create a career themselves as well."

Free. Miller Outdoor Theatre, 6000 Hermann Park Dr. 281-373-3386. More info at milleroutdoortheatre.com.
