The “Baby Boyz Dance Group” is a group of eight diversely trained male dancers under the direction of Artistic Director and choreographer, Trevor Brown. The company incorporates many genres weaving a creative identity that is compelling, moving, athletic and explosive dedicated to the creation of original works that celebrate the power and scope of the imagination with an emphasis placed on incorporating social messages in their work.
