Here. Now.
by Andrea Ariel Dance Theatre
May. 01 - May. 03
Thursday-Saturday
For this highly collaborative project for our 35th Season, Andrea Ariel Dance Company's critically-acclaimed founding artistic and producing director Andrea Ariel brings together diverse multicultural artists to present an exhilarating evening of dance theatre and live music focused on the many facets of identity.
Audiences will experience powerful explorations of memory and transformation tracing the arc of self-discovery, from childhood innocence to independence, crisis, and healing; delving into the dualities shaped by culture—balancing harmony and conflict, tradition and change, belonging and solitude; and the eclectic influences of music, fashion, and cinema shaping artistic evolution and self-expression. Each of the artistic partners have created new works exploring these themes that are woven together through choreography by Andrea Ariel.
The artistic partners featured in the project include Anuradha Naimpally (Austin Dance India), Luis Ordaz Gutiérrez (Proyecto Teatro), Jun “Sunny” Shen (Shen Jun Movement Effect), and Ciceley Fullylove (Independent dancer, choreographer and singer).
Live music is created by Frederico Geib (Frederico 7 y Los Primes), Claude McCan (Claude9), Bruno Vinezof, Andres Acevedo and Rey Arteaga (Son y No Son) whose experiences bring together a vast array of music genres including Latin, Columbian cumbia, Mexican bolero, Brazilian, Americana, Blues, Funk, Soul, Reggae, Lounge Music, HipHop and Experimental.
This project is supported in part by the City of Austin Economic Development Department
