YOUNG BOY DANCING GROUP was initiated in 2014 as a mercurial performance group with no initial name and an ongoing alternating cast. Since 2015, the group, based in Zurich, has been titled Young Boy Dancing Group. As Spike Magazine wrote: “Since making their debut as a performance group at Paris’s Club Silencio in 2014, eccentric tactics earning early viral fame have matured into immersive studies in physical intensity, sensuality, and extreme absurdity”.
