Meet the Youth Group

Da Bratz - Da Bratz is the youth group of Olivier Awarded Hip-Hop Dance Company Boy Blue Entertainment. Ranging from ages 9 to 18, some members joined six or more years ago while others have come onboard within the last year.
Training twice a week to develop knowledge, understanding and learn about the history of different Hip-Hop dance and Street Dance styles, Da Bratz have performed at Sadler?s Wells (Breakin’ Convention), Theatre Royal Stratford East and the Barbican, as well as in youth shows around London.
Recent high-profile credits for some members, include the acclaimed production of Pied Piper, and the BBC dance television programme Move Like Michael Jackson.
Da Bratz,under the choreographic arms of Vicky ‘Skytilz’ Mantey and Bruno ‘Boom’ Perrier, returned to Breakin Convention 2012 to open that year’s programme.

Da Bluez - Da Bluez is the older group of Olivier Awarded Hip-Hop Dance Company Boy Blue Entertainment. Born from within BBE itself, Da Bluez was created by former members of Da Bratz. As they grew older, now ages ranging from 17 to 21, they wished to continue but within a reborn form, Da Bluez. Now in their 4th year, they are a force within themselves as part of the BBE family tree.

Da Bluez,under the choreographic arms of Vicky ‘Skytilz’ Mantey and Bruno ‘Boom’ Perrier, performed this exclusive choreography, originally choreographed on 9 adults from the senior company in 2011 and has been a piece to develop individualist performance skills as well as challenging them to the intricacies of Kenrick’s choreography for this work.
