The Legend of Hip Hop is a show about the founding and development of Hip Hop. Therefore the composer Karsten Gundermann and the choreographer Wilfried Ebongue worked together and fused urban dance, rap, beatboxing and the classical sounds of an orchestra in order to display the history of hip hop. Besides getting a sense of the subculture, the audience also gets an insight into different facets of social life.
