ABOUT

Artists Emily "Lady Em" Culbreath and Joshua "Bboy Supa Josh" Culbreath are Snack Break Movement Arts, a performance duo specializing in event curation and interdisciplinary performance works inspired by street dance. Respectively, Emily and Josh are rehearsal and assistant artistic directors for the renowned street dance theater company Rennie Harris Puremovement and recently held positions as adjunct faculty at Franklin and Marshall College in Lancaster, PA. They are both graduate fellows of the University of Iowa's dance program in the MFA choreography track. Snack Break's duet entitled "Rock, Paper..."  was recently included in San Fransisco International Hip Hop Dance Festival's 25th-anniversary program and received the award for "Best Duo" at Summer Dance Forever's online theater competition in 2022, at which they recently performed the duet live in Amsterdam, NE at Summer Dance Forever's 2023 event. Snack Break seeks to pay homage to the integrity of African-American vernacular dance while also challenging the way audiences consume street dance through the utilization of theatrics, the concert stage, multi-media, and contemporary movement practices.
