More About the Limón Dance Company
The troupe has been at the vanguard of American dance from its inception in 1946, bringing the immediacy of our common experience onto the stage, exuberantly and intensely, with musical and fully lived dancing. They speak, urgently and joyfully, of our lives now: how we face the world and how we sense that world around us, how we can be with others, how we can destroy the bonds between us, and how we can create community.
The classic Limón works, like Shakespeare’s, are as perceptive today as when they were made, and the dancers use them to talk to us of today’s individual struggles and triumphs, and of racism, domestic abuse, and our joyful ability to create community.
