Cerqua Rivera Dance Theatre explores authentic personal stories at the crossroads of heritage, culture, and identity to foster empathy and understanding. They are known for their “blended magic” and “immersive alchemy.” Their performances, accompanied by a live jazz band and original musical compositions, explore themes of immigration, refuge, spiritual practices, gender, and sexuality. As one of the few Latin-based dance companies in the area, Cerqua Rivera works with diverse choreographers, musicians, and artists to share untold stories, creating a powerful connection between performers and audience. Each piece is a collaboration that merges dance, music, and human experiences, bringing new perspectives to the concert dance stage.
