Pied Piper - a hip hop dance revolution

I saw that Pied Piper is returning to the Barbican
Barbican - Boy Blue Entertainment

Even if you don't like dance (and I'm not a big fan) try to get to see this.
Basically it is East End teenagers doing fantastic dance moves, bringing the Pied Piper story into the 21st Century and set in a grimy urban environment. The role of the suited and booted white folks who pay the Pied Piper to take the hoodies off the streets is just marvellous. The Piper is not paid, and of course retaliates by taking away the children.
My description does not really do justice to this - one of the best things you will see all year. Due apologies for being London-centric.
