Description

Agua Furiosa, CONTRA-TIEMPO’s newest work, challenges audiences to confront harsh realities of race in our country. Inspired by Shakespeare’s “The Tempest” and Oya, the Afro-Cuban deity of wind and storms, artistic director and choreographer Ana Maria Alvarez harnesses her unique urban-Latin movement approach to create a visually stunning and thought-provoking evening of dance performance.


CONTRA-TIEMPO is a bold, multilingual Los Angeles-based dance company, whose work is rooted in Salsa and Afro-Cuban movement and draws from hip-hop, urban dance and contemporary dance theater. The dancers create an invigorating blend of physically intense and socially astute performances that pushes the boundaries of Latin dance as an expressive cultural and contemporary form.


Presented in collaboration with UCLA Department of World Arts and Cultures/Dance.
