Hailed throughout the world, Danza Contemporánea de Cuba galvanizes audiences with the rhythms of contemporary Cuban dance. In a dazzling two-part choreographic display, the contagious energy of some 20 performers ignites the stage. A grand celebration!

Founded in 1959, Danza Contemporánea de Cuba is known for its unique style, a skilful blend of mambo, Afro-Caribbean traditions, classical ballet and contemporary influences. For their Quebec debut, two of the company's choreographers infuse the dancers’ bodies with their signature vision. Annabelle Lopez Ochoa (Reversible) and George Céspedes (Katharsis Morphé) explore notions of identity, creative effervescence, and the social climate of their island. With total commitment, an impressive cohort of dancers of impeccable agility deliver this choreographic and musical journey full of contrasts and sensuality. A captivating adventure where the myths of the past illuminate the present; an invigorating cultural and artistic encounter.

“The dancers of Danza Contemporánea de Cuba are fabulously versatile – a brassy, bouncy blend of aerobics, salsa, modern dance and techno rave.”
