Guadalupe
Dance Company
Unique
among the nation’s dance companies, the Guadalupe
Dance Company is one of the leading professional Folklórico
and Flamenco dance groups. Founded in 1992, the unparalleled
skill,
choreography and costuming of its corps of dancers, under the
direction of Belinda Menchaca, make for exceptional artistry
that
is both culturally enlightening and technically stunning in its
execution. With the guidance of instructors from Mexico, the
Company
performs traditional Mexican Folklórico and Aztec dances,
Flamenco and Spanish classical dance, contemporary theatrical
pieces, and dances of the Texas-Mexico border from indigenous
times to the 20th century. Dancers must be trained in various
styles of dance to be a candidate for Company Apprentice and
are
selected by the director through the adult Academy classes. The
Dance Company is available for local performances as well as
for
touring offering full-length performances and lecture demonstrations
for schools. |
