Recognized as one of America’s cultural treasures, Ballet Hispánico celebrates the ever growing and multifaceted Hispanic diasporas through vibrant dance in this Hispanic Heritage Month performance. Founded by dance luminary Tina Ramirez on the principle that everyone deserves dance, quality dance training, and innovative performances, Artistic Director & CEO Eduardo Vilaro has built the company to uplift the intersection of Hispanic cultures, pioneeringly breaking down boundaries and stereotypes. “Everything about Ballet Hispánico is smashingly theatrical—from the stunning individuality and flamboyant, expressive style of its dancers to its use of sets, lighting, costumes and sound” (Chicago Sun-Times). As a Mason Artist-in-Residence, the company will engage the community and George Mason students through a variety of events, classes, and discussions during the week surrounding their performance.
