Direct from the Palace of Fine Arts in Mexico City, this spectacular company of 65 dancers and musicians is one of the most prestigious dance companies in the world. Ballet Folklorico de Mexico is a celebration of life in movement, music, and color. Its many dances encompass Mayan and Aztec rituals, dramatic events from Mexico's past and colorful depictions of Mexico's diverse culture and folklore. Drawing from the rich and varied repertoire of Amalia Hernandez, Latin America's most important choreographer, the selection of dances for the company's current tour presents brilliant theatricality and great passion.
"Amalia Hernandez is an expert at putting together fast-paced entertaining shows that can make viewers want to rush right off to Mexico." -New York Times
