The Wondertwins

Identical twins Billy & Bobby McClain started dancing at the age of 8. The childhood beginnings started as they would imitate a weekly dance show called "Soul Train" and by 9 years old they were doing their "WonderTwins show" for family events such as cookouts and barbecues. At 10 years old, they won their first dance competition which was judged by the legendary rapper KURTIS BLOW. Later that year, Billy and Bobby were recruited to join Boston's first professional street dance crew "The Funk Affects", a group that influenced and were very inspirational to the early success of New Edition and New Kids on the Block. They spent seven years with the company gaining recognition by opening up concerts for big names like Run DMC, LL Cool J. In their early teens, they were performing monthly hour-long shows for the community with opening acts such as New Kids on the Block, who they would later co/choreograph elements of their Magic Summer Tour and produce a song for their album.

Today, the award-winning street dance pioneer duo from Boston have headlined at Jacob’s Pillow "Unreal Hip Hop" & Inside/Out Dance Festival, Brooklyn Dance Fest, Rochester University, Southern Vermont, Dance Festival, Colby College, NYC Town Hall, Uragano Italy, Concepto Vimen Mexico, Wembley Arena, Singapore Indoor Stadium, TedX Talks boston, David White's TapTheYard, DanceTheYard, DanceNOW Boston, DanceNOW, Joe’s Pub, Dixon Place, The Dance Hall, The Music Hall Loft, the Martha’s Vineyard Performing Arts Center, and The Lincoln Center. They are also six-time winners of Showtime at The Apollo Theater and performed a record 16 appearances on the Apollo Stage.

The Wondertwins have also appeared with Maurice Hines’ "Club Harlem" at the Apollo Theater and toured internationally with Bobby Brown’s "Don’t Be Cruel" USA/UK tour and Purple Rain’s co-star Apollonia’s "Since I Fell For You" tour in Singapore.
