(GALLOWAY, NJ) -- Last year marked the 50th anniversary of hip hop, and what better way to celebrate than with Stockton University's Performing Arts Center? "BREAK! The Urban Funk Spectacular," an electrifying show that features a high-energy tribute to this creatively charged American art form, will take the main stage on Friday, February 16, 2024 at 7:30pm.

A combination of pure physical strength and agility propels this group of New York's finest urban artists through a show of breathtaking movements to a pumping soundtrack with a live DJ and master percussionists. Cast members are supremely talented artists from the world of “break dancing,” “locking,” “electric boogaloo” or “popping,” “power tumbling,” as well as DJ-ing and bucket drumming.

Tickets are $40 for the general public; $38 for senior citizens; $35 for Stockton University alumni; $30 for Stockton staff and faculty; $18 for children (12 and under); and $10 for Stockton students. Special pricing for groups of 10 or more people is also available.
