One of Finland’s most famous street dance groups, Will Funk For Food (WFFF), have created the first hour-long locking street dance performance in Finland! The performance premiered at Dance House Helsinki in June 2024.

The performance is inspired by the hypermasculinity and toxic machismo in western films and the array of characters in the genre. Locking is the common thread in A Fistful of Funk, through which it knits together with contemporary dance theatre.

In addition to locking, the performance makes use of contemporary dance movements, physical theatre and the methods of clownery. The aim is to set a narrative and adventurous stage where each performer’s originality and uniqueness feed into each other.
