✨Esclavo y Amo✨
Performer Christopher Cortez embraces the legacy of Mexican Culture's influence of classic "romantica" music through dance and costume. Combining modern and contemporary dance styles to tell the story of a man who has fallen hopelessly in love. He will perform a solo, as his choreographic NYC debut, as testament and tribute to this timeless era of music that was influenced by his grandparents.

✨Huapango Veracruzano✨
Mexica Danza Folklorica is debuting for the first time at MeXfest: Huapango Veracruzano as part of their “Al Son Huasteca, A Celebration of Huapangos” production. Huapango Huasteco hails from the Huasteca region of northeastern Mexico, stretching along six states: Tamaulipas, Queretaro, Veracruz, Puebla, Hidalgo and San Luis Potosi. Huapangos has close indigenous roots and continues to be part of a tradition that has survived for many years. Our goal is to celebrate the diversity of Mexico as well in NYC and bring a piece of Mexico to those who feel too far away from home. Sharing the stage with live music Trio Afortunado Huasteco from NYC.
