Dance sensation Flawless will embark on their biggest tour yet with their feature-length show Chase the Dream. This show first premiered at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in August 2010, where it took both the critics and the audience buy storm, and they won the Forth1 Best Festival Act 2011. Read more …
As well as the remarkable street dance routines for which they have become famous, this inspirational show will include contemporary jazz, modern ballet and jump jive. Exposing this diverse range of dance skills both collectively and as individual performers, Chase the Dream explores life in the fast lane, ultimately encouraging everyone to chase their dreams.
After making it to the finals of Britain's Got Talent in 2009, the 10 strong dance troupe starred in the hit movie StreetDance 3D as well as appearing in music videos for Madonna, Beyonce, Leona Lewis and Westlife. Following a sold-out run of Chase the Dream at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this year, Flawless continue to entertain audiences across the UK with their energy, originality and uncanny unison.
Choreographer and lead member of Flawless Marlon Wallen, 26, formed the group in 2004. A self- taught dancer, Wallen was inspired by the likes of Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, Michael Jackson and James Brown. Wallen and the rest of Flawless work closely together to produce new and innovative choreography to make dance more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.
