As an Associate Company of Joyce Theater Productions, Malpaso Dance Company returns to its second home for its eighth appearance. Established in 2012, Malpaso has become one of the most sought-after Cuban dance companies with an ever-growing international profile. Highlighting their dedication to nurturing Cuban artistic voices, the program will feature work primarily by Cuban choreographers. This special engagement includes the New York premiere of A Dancing Island, Artistic Director Osnel Delgado’s latest work which celebrates the social dances of Cuba from rumba to salsa and is set to a new score performed live by musicians from Cuba and the United States led by celebrated saxophonist and composer Ted Nash.
