Based in the San Francisco Bay Area and New York City, the company is known for adapting significant literary works for the stage, reimagining them through a fusion of dance, music, and theater. Danse Lumière’s work often engages with some of the most pressing social issues of our time.

“So engaging was last night’s performance. Lujan, from the Metropolitan Opera Ballet, epitomizes why ballet remains vibrant and alive. I marveled at his nuanced and rich interpretations.”
-Theater Beyond Broadway, New York City
“The performance was a sophisticated and moving interpretation of Joyce’s world. Roszak’s work reflects a rare combination of literary depth, choreographic precision, and cultural sensitivity. She approaches Joyce not only with reverence, but with a dynamic artistic vision that resonates with contemporary audiences.”
— Liam Reidy, President, United Irish Cultural Center
