 Anyway earlier this week that was on Wednesday afternoon, right? That was the moment that I had this phone call from my friend and manager for the First Flight Crew, Alison Richardson and one of them wanted me to appear on Sunrise today.  Accessible Arts held a skills exchange day for Western Sydney arts centres on 27 May 2010, in response to the need to develop audiences that include people with disability at museums and galleries.  The First Flight Crew have been invited to perform at Hip Hop Projections 5 – Words from the West, as part of the Sydney Writers Festival. They will perform alongside some of Australia’s most established and well known hip hop artists and will of course be supported by their mentor/ tutor Aussie hip hop legend, Morganics.  In the mixed bag that was Term One of the Performance Workshops at Hawkesbury Regional Gallery, participants developed skills in breathing, sound making, decision making and range of movement. The major focus this term was devising movement and performing.  Come support emerging hip hop group the First Flight Crew at Sydney’s largest hip hop festival, PLATFORM 3. The crew will be showing off their latest routine featuring all original music that they have created with Aussie B-Boy Morganics. Yes I met them all. Most of them are there thankfully. Except Nina, who was sick ;( But the show must go on….Sorry to tell you that. Well anyways it rained really bad like hell yesterday. Which ain’t that great. But the rehearsals are on, it must continue despite of this weather. Thankfully that it didn’t dampen our spirits LOL. And yes, we’re all happy as it is. |
