A performance of “Breaking: The Musical,” a parody exploring the journey of the Australian breaker known as B-girl Raygun, whose unusual routines at the Paris Olympics this summer led to mockery and memes, was shut down after a cease-and-desist letter.
Steph Broadbridge, the show’s creator and star, said she was willing to make changes so the show could move forward, but not at the expense of art. She said the show in Sydney was designed to be intimate enough that she could receive feedback from friends and other comedians with the goal of having it fully ready by May.
