Frameline 49 - Wicket @ Roxie

Details

San Francisco’s legendary Bboy Wicket, internationally renowned for power moves and flawless footwork, changed the game in the heydays of hip-hop, redefining what it meant to be the best in breakdancing. From his days with the SF Renegade Rockers crew, to learning East Coast style with Flomaster of Rock Steady, to merging his power and style into something show-stopping and unprecedented, Wicket seemed to be it all and have it all. But the closeted gay man behind the persona, Gabriel Jaochico, wondered, “Did being the best protect me? I don’t think it did. The more popular I got, the more I had to hide.”

Showtime is 5.45 pm - please be at the theater at least 30 minutes before showtime to get seats - this show will likely sell out.
