Dance will be powerful and intricate with street dance and ballet moves to mesmerize and entrance the audience. The music will be handcrafted jazz with their New Orleans roots. This performance includes new compositions created specifically for this project. McIntyre and PHJB meshed performance elements with sounds, sights and flavors of Creole, Blues and influences from the French West Indies.

The show debuts tonight at 8 p.m. at the Kahilu Theatre for one performance only. Tickets range from $25 to $65.
