Check out choreographer extraordinaire Wade Robson's piece on So You Think You Can Dance Season 2. His signature style partly comprises of the following:
*Dark Characters/Themes: dancers in his pieces tend to play dark characters and is reflected in the overall look (dark costumes and heavy makeup).
*Movement influenced by Bob Fosse and Michael Kidd: awkward positioning associated with Fosse (i.e. knees turned it, head isolations, curved back, etc...) and musical theater aspect of Kidd. Movement design to the beat of music used.
*Mixture of Jazz + Hip-Hop: it has a hip-hop feel, but requires jazz technique to pull off.
This is his creation to the song Cobrastyle by Robyn done on Season 4 of SYTYCD.
***FYI: He also choreographed Cabaret Hoover (see Props article).
His most recent project was choreographing Criss Angel's Believe with Cirque du Soleil in Las Vegas.
