Share on Social Media

Playing @
Gerald W. Lynch Theatre at John Jay College
524 West 59th Street, New York City, NY 10019
In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, Dzul Dance fuses multiple dance forms with aerial and circus arts as a means to communicate pre-Hispanic, Latin and Mexican culture. 

By transforming his company into earthbound and airborne forces of nature Dzul creates bridges between contemporary art and historical heritage while breaking physical and cultural boundaries.

Artistic Director and Choreographer Javier Dzul grew up immersed in Mayan culture and later trained and performed with the Martha Graham Dance Company
. His new work will focus on several pre-Hispanic rites of passage and explore the idea of ritual as a transformative experience.
