Lil Buck and Jon Boogz premiere 'Love Heals All Wounds' at NYU's Skirball Center

Street dancers Lil Buck and Jon Boogz debuted their first full-length theatrical show, 'Love Heals All Wounds', at New York University's Skirball Center. The performance tackles Black Lives Matter themes including mass incarceration and police violence, while also reflecting on real and symbolic walls. Lil Buck, a virtuoso of the Jookin dance style from Memphis, has previously collaborated with Louis Vuitton, Versace, Yo-Yo Ma, Madonna, Spike Lee, JR, and Roberto Bolle. The duo, who formed the organization Movement Art Is (MIA), previously worked with artist Alexa Meade on a viral Facebook video. Their next project is a short film for the Tribeca Film Festival with Terrence Malick titled 'Together'. The show features four additional dancers, all of whom met dancing on the streets. Lil Buck studied classical ballet for three years, emphasizing its benefits for balance and control.
