Athletic star dancer who dazzled as Spinderella in the hit West End show Into the Hoods
In the sometimes macho world of hip-hop dance, a form that demands explosive power and immense strength, Teneisha Bonner, who has died of breast cancer at the age of 37, proved she could do anything her male peers could, and more.
Bonner was the star female performer in the choreographer Kate Prince’s company, ZooNation, and was instrumental in helping Prince take hip-hop, a once underground culture, to mainstream theatre stages and family audiences.
