About this Event
Join us for an exclusive performance by Spanish dancer and choreographer Luna Sánchez Arroyo, as she presents the culmination of her artistic residency with Company E at the Spanish Cultural Center in Washington, D.C.
This one-time event will feature UUUuuUuUu, a unique choreographic and musical exploration inspired by the movement of air. Luna's work delves into the relationship between bodies and sound, using air as a dynamic force that shapes dance, breath, and emotion. Accompanied by seven dancers from Company E -Philip Baraoidan, Ryan Carlough, Michala Conroy, Ja'Myra LaSalle, Horizon Miguel, Tara Compton Parsan, and Kathryn Sydell Pilkington-, Luna will bring this innovative sensory experience to life, intertwining movement, and sound to create a captivating narrative.
