REVIEW: Dance N'Speak Easy | Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2024

"Spirited and suave ...and all that jazz."

Resembling a bar in 1920s New York, Underbelly’s McEwan Hall welcomes the debut show from the world champions of hip hop Wanted Posse, Dance N’Speak Easy to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.


Mixing hip-hop and jazz, the company’s dancers dazzle with displays in freestyle and breakdancing, and the classics like the Charleston and jitterbug.


From dance-offs to group choreography, props and staging, the dancers each bring their own rhythmic flair and high-energy to their seemingly effortless performances.


Dance N’Speak Easy is spirited and suave… and all that jazz.

EDINBURGH FESTIVAL FRINGE

For three weeks in August, the city of Edinburgh welcomes an explosion of creative energy from around the globe. Artists and performers take to hundreds of stages all over the city, presenting shows for every taste. Venues can be anywhere, from existing theatres and concert halls to repurposed spaces like bars, parks, buses and shipping containers. The Fringe street events bring colour, excitement and vibrancy to outdoor areas, free of charge.


From big names in the world of entertainment to unknown artists looking to build their careers, the festival spans every genre of live performance, including theatre, comedy, dance, physical theatre, circus, cabaret, children's shows, musicals, opera, music, spoken word, exhibitions and events.


The Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society, a registered charity, is the company that organises the structure that underpins the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The level of commitment required for such an undertaking would not be possible if it weren’t for the enthusiasm of the people of Edinburgh, combined with the longstanding support of our audiences, sponsors, supporters and the goodwill of the Fringe Friends and Angels.


The Fringe Society strives to provide support that exceeds participant and public expectations, and we ask you to join us in supporting this challenge. Every penny you give makes a difference, helping us to develop the services we provide for performers and audience.


There are a number of ways of supporting the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society, from one-off donations to becoming a Fringe Friend.
