“ A nonstop binge of attitude, high-energy stepping, and freewheeling virtuosity.”
—Village Voice

The New Yorker says, “Killa is an apt title for Leichter’s new dance. Killing it, working it, bringing attitude and invention to bear on every beat . . . African movements, samba hips, the stylings of various Jacksons, and the funky chicken all find a place.” The virtuosic company will also perform excerpts from the company’s new work The Whiz, an outlandish take on The Wizard of Oz. “The performers in this vivid, hyperactive review, adrift in funk and jazz and club dancing, are wonderful.” —Village Voice
