QUEST CREW

introduction 

       Before becoming MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew, Season 3, Quest Crew’s energy and charisma captured the attention of audiences with their numerous crew and individual performances on American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance? On ABDC, they entertained their way into the homes and hearts of America, leading to a whirlwind of appearances this past year. Appearances include the motion picture The Squeakquel and dozens of coveted television, music video, and stage performances throughout the country. ABDC, Season 3 is now airing abroad and their popularity has already set them on course for appearances in Europe, Asia, and Australia. They continue to be amazed and thankful for their ever supportive and loyal fans.

Quest Crew is a family of close friends with a common love for dance and the arts. Accomplished dancers, each with their own specialty and style, they bring to the stage a great mix of humor, musicality, high-flying and eye-popping tricks, innovative choreography, and personality that consistently brings audiences to their feet.

Giving back has always been an important part of Quest Crew’s philosophy as evidenced by their support of several charitable events as well as their name; their way of thanking the Quest Learning Center in Artesia, California for graciously giving them a home to train and polish their performance skills.
