{The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers, commonly called The LXD, is a web series about two groups of rival dancers: The Alliance of the Dark who are the villains and The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers, the heroes, who discover they have superpowers referred to as "the Ra" through their dance abilities.[3][4] The entire story takes place over hundreds of years, beginning in the 1920s up to the year 3000.[1]
The series is written, directed, and produced by Jon Chu[4][5] who says he was inspired to create the series by Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and "Smooth Criminal" music videos and by the dancers he met while filming the movie Step Up 2: The Streets.[6][7][fn 2] He describes the show as "balletic", "operatic", "high quality"[6] and a "Justice League of dance."[3] The series is choreographed byChristopher Scott and Harry Shum, Jr. with assistant choreography by Galen Hooks.[2][4][8][fn 3] Members have a wide variety of specialties including hip-hop, krumping, contemporary, tricking, popping, b-boying, jazz, tap, and ballet.[1][4][8] All of the choreography and stunts are real; there are no special effects or wire work[6] and the entire series is shot on location without the use of green screens.[1]} http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legion_of_Extraordinary_Dancers
