Works & Process: The Missing Element is part of Mid Atlantic Tours 2025-2026 roster. The Mid Atlantic Tours program is funded by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA).

"The Missing Element" fuses together awe-inspiring street dancers from krump, flexn, and breaking communities with the virtuosic music-making of The Beatbox House. An immersive experience where street dancers and beatboxers use their abilities to embark on an adventure of making sound and dance. Their mission is to work together to find "The Missing Element." All music and sound are 100% human-generated, creating soundscapes for the dancers to move with and through. The dancers perform with incredible flexibility, technique and athleticism-human-created sonic landscapes.
