Mistica tells stories of the ancients through new choreographic renditions of El Venado, Viejitos, and other traditional favorites. New stories also emerge, performed in black light, as the dead come to life in celebratory fashion.
Ballet Nepantla's choreography employs a fusion style of storytelling, where Mexican folklorico, classical ballet, and contemporary dance come together to create an emerging genre. Mistica honors our ancestors, and the dead take the stage as the centerpiece of the show. Performed in blacklight, Mistica ignites the senses and accentuates the evocative beauty of Dia de Muertos.
BALLET NEPANTLA is a New York City-based professional company that partners with the Edinburg Dance Theatre, a nonprofit organization based in Edinburg, TX. Founded and directed by South Texas native ANDREA GUAJARDO, Ballet Nepantla fuses classical and contemporary ballet with Mexican folklorico. Through innovative choreography and harnessing the musical richness of traditional narratives, Nepantla will perform Mistica a story ballet that honors the dead.
