DanceBrazil’s unique fusion of modern/
Afro-Brazilian dance, live music and
Capoeira celebrates the rich, vibrant
culture of Bahia, Brazil, in two high-
flying programs.
The world premiere of artistic director
Jelon Vieira’s new work, Desafio,
choreographed in collaboration with
Guilherme Duarte, explores challenge
in all of its forms…and their Joyce
season also features the return of last year’s
hit, Retratros de Bahia – a stunning work
depicting the colorful life and people of
Bahia…as they work, play, dance and worship.
