Whoever choreographed this is an absolute genius

[@evapabla3959]

Katie Lane her name is Emily I used to dance at vale its amazing

[@Bookworm51485]

...not even close

[@Khattooo]

And the dancers too are amazing

[@somethingsnotrighthere]

Quo Vadis Quo Warranto pretty sure that’s supposed to be the effect! Shows they did well ;p

[@somethingsnotrighthere]

Quo Vadis Quo Warranto imo, the dance was supposed to be a dark story- doing something that exaggerates a point is what was supposed to happen. It was a way to show that the story they told (of a bombing), isn’t a nice one As to glorification of evil, it is mostly a change in interest! Religion isn’t law so much nowadays and people look at dark things differently. I’m personally a huge fan of dark religions because well... it’s a very sophisticated thing, just like heaven, but we’re so used to looking at good as the only answer that horrible things are interesting. People are fans of true crime because of fascination that these things happen and that someone is willing to murder someone. It isn’t all glorification, sometimes it’s interest, and in the dances context, it’s a way of making the audience feel a certain way.

[@tolu4455]

I can’t stop imagining myself dancing blindfolded it ll be a miracle if am still in one piece or no report of broken leg or twisted neck

[@amberthemagnificent7259]

Lmao do the dance perfectly 10x in a row with a blindfold off, then try it with one on. Just trust your body and memory to do the dancing

[@binghellwagner7623]

Kira - you can but you need time to practice to be well acquainted with your senses ..People who are blind developed other senses well ..Its interesting to learn blinds life and ways ..

[@tolu4455]

You guys need to see me dancing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣and you no what am talking about

[@jessijzo]

they can actually see through that tho, that's kind of a cloth that looks like totally black on the outside but when you actually wear it you can actually see. We used that before

Looking like a bird box anime intro, love it! Edit: what this is crazy, so many likes! Thanks guys!

[@waaaaantube]

Oh. Damn. This show should've been featured!

[@leed261]

It reminded me of that, A Quiet Place and the dancing style of The OA, amazing

It is bird box that’s why haha

[@ryanawilson8549]

Bird Box was my first thought

[@Delia0692TV]

Nobody: Literally nobody: Only them: we dance blind, beat that!

[@ZinniaLP]

Sean Lew and Kaycee Rice LEARNT a dance while blindfolded. They didn't just perform bling they learnt blind

[@ZinniaLP]

@Dancing Insanity they did a vid with Matt Stefanina where they learnt while blindfolded

[@user-br1ir8vz1n]

jimin from bts has performed live multiple times while blindfolded, if anyone was actually wanting to see more blindfold dance videos~ “jimin lie live” or “bts mama 2016 live” i hope you enjoy them if you do watch!

[@MelodyB29]

This must have been based on bird box. Even their outfits

[@euhwesh6651]

It is

[@lorikeeland4238]

I thought it was about child abductions with all the fake bruises

[@QWAsingz]

That movie, I loved it Edit: I still do

[@hannah5012]

I don't think so, if you look at the dance moves and the narrative they bring together as well as the costumes, it seems that the dance was about a bombing or apocalyptic war scenario. The blindfolds represent those that will not survive the blast.

[@livdee5687]

Hannah Ashe I was in a competition against them and my dance school are good friends with them, there dance was titled ‘Birdbox’

[@bmckong]

I can’t get over how creepy Matt’s moustache is.

I like these videos but cant stand how they have to zoom in on people's faces who are watching to make it more dramatic or something.

I saw this dance at WOD in portugal last year and it was absolutely insane. The crowd was silent throughout the entire performance. Vale is just an incredible studio!

Him and a creature growing on his upper lip.

Gibby Cates it’s because he was filming American horror story at the time and had to have a mustache

[@amina9448]

Bird box the musical

[@heidibaltom8138]

What i absolutely love is they didnt need to rely on tricks or putting their leg in the air to show off how flexible they are. Even if they could sort of see through those this is impressive for people of their age. This type of dance is difficult even for adults as you have to be emotionally be able to put that into your dancing and understand what is being said through the body and they did this so well. I dont know if it was them or one of the judges that screamed but that scared me. They looked scared and i could go on forever but this is soooooo goooood.

[@KCsFunHouse]

Holy crap, the difficulty of this especially considering the age of these kids, amazing. Absolutely amazing!

[@LuvLegendary]

YESSSSS YESSSSS !!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽PHENOMENALLY DONE !!!! YOU HAVE TO HAVE GREAT SKILLS TO PERFORM BLIND FOLDED !!!! NOTTTTT ONLY THAT TRUST IN YOUR CO DANCERS 👯‍♀️ AS WELL !!!! BRAVO !!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Its sheer material you can see through it. Not properly blindfolded.

[@annechota6874]

This performance just gave me goosebumps and brought tears to my ears😭 this is such a brilliant performance😍

[@jhayboi544]

Wooooowwww. One of the Best Contemporary Dance Piece.

[@Shalyn-ln9tu]

That is a strong team, know your moves and count your steps, you can perform blindfolded. In marching band, we did whole shows blindfolded to prove you knew your steps. This was amazing hard work, super proud of them.

[@Hinaweena]

Todrick - “Do I need to get my stuff and go?” 😂 Great emotion and performance on top of the great technique and choreography. 👏

[@johnathannnnn]

“do I need to grab my stuff and go too?!” 😂😂😂

[@carlingnugent]

I normally really dislike dance shows. Dance isn't my thing and I dont care much for it. It really doesn't do anything for me. I range from meh to ugh. But this was something else. This was amazing. I'd watch this for hours.

[@zzsmile1]

When I saw the blindfolds, I thought of Kaycee Rice & Sean Lew in WOD; forgive the comparison as they're very different performances but this performance was also captivating & equally impressive, even if they could see a little, it is difficult to execute this clever storytelling of Birdbox with that many people & with precision too!

[@coriolis4761]

They aren't blindfolded. It's sheer, they can see through

[@gwyneths3048]

pause at 2:53 the light is shining through it and you still can’t see the other side

[@suze7751]

Nope they definitely can’t see. Friends sister is in it and she’s confirmed it.

[@crystalgl0w]

Even if it's sheer they still cant see properly

[@katy_xoxo493]

it's still impairing their vision slightly. and i mean regardless, their dancing is AMAZING, unique and like this is what dance is

[@rosiegiesler4705]

@Christine Park not any of her live shows but I've study her and her dance styles lots. Her film was so interesting and inspiring I feel like modern choreographers are missing her message crucial message re-inventing dance. Dv8 again is amazing. I think the reason myself included are so surprised to seeing this dance is because people aren't used to seeing a new and truly inventive way of dancing no hate to modern choreographers though.
