EMS Campus Gets Down to

Phunk Phenomenon!

idwinter can feel quite bleak and oppressively cold in New England, but on an otherwise routine mid-January afternoon, Landmark’s Elementary • Middle School was hot, hot, hot.

Phunk Phenomenon blasted onto the campus to perform for students and teachers who were transfixed by this edgy, youthful, multicultural dance troupe. Their provocative performances were a “cross-cultural fusion of traditional and contemporary street dance formats with highlights of modern dance, ballet, tap, and various music forms (jazz, house, hip hop, tribal, and Latin).”

The performers moved skillfully through a series of complex and physically demanding choreographed and improvisational dance numbers and at the end of the show invited a few eager student and staff volunteers to strut their stuff. This special performance was sponsored by the Landmark Parents Association with additional support from funds collected at an EMS Dress Down day in the fall.
