Synopsis

Basketball is the most popular game on the planet. Streetball is its rougher, tougher, younger brother. You’ve got to be strong; you’ve got to be fast…above all you’ve got to have style. Cory is the best streetball player on the estate. He wants to leave his team, the Zeros, and go legit with the A-list. But when burning ambition takes over and he turns his back on his friends and family, his dream threatens to destroy him. Blending fast-paced action, stunning basketball moves, rap and street dance, Slamdunk is the most dazzling, highly-charged musical.
