UAA Student Activities is pleased to present Massive Monkees, an internationally renowned
B-boy (break dancing) group from Seattle. They recently won the 2012 world championships
of B-boy competition, "R-16 Korea" in Seoul, making them the first U.S. crew to win
the prestigious title.
In 2004, Greg Nickels, mayor of Seattle, officially declared April 26 as annual "Massive Monkees Day" in honor of their contribution to the world through their art. Critics have called them "percussively-gifted, hip-hop dervishes" and "one of the most famous breaking crews in the world."
Tickets available at the door. Admission is free for UAA students taking 6 or more credits with valid ID and $5 for general public.
