Sun Kim Dance Theatre
is founded by its Artistic Director Sun Kim, with a mission to explore the possibilities of particular dance style ‘Popping’ in a theatrical manner along with different aspects of physical theatre, and use it as a medium for storytelling, amplifying diverse voices and sharing universal human experiences.
SKDT is committed to creating platforms that elevate the work of underrepresented artists, particularly those from the street dance and immigrant artist communities. We believe that by featuring a broad range of perspectives, we can contribute to the creation of a more inclusive and equitable world.
SKDT has performed at LayeRhythm/Works & Process with New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, New Victory Theater, San Francisco International Hip Hop Dance Festival, NYU Skirball, Ladies of Hip Hop Festival, Dance Parade NYC, MOPTOP Anniversary and Choreographer’s Carnival. Sun Kim has received The Harlem Stage Emerging Artist Award and was nominated at the 2022 Bessie Awards for Outstanding Breakout Choreographer.
