We just wrapped an incredible three-day residency at the BlueShore at CapU! This residency marks a pivotal phase for our dancers, who have been working intensely since January to create and produce their own original works. Under the mentorship of Artistic Director Davi Rodrigues @barichini , Rehearsal Director Margarida Macieira @margarida.macieira , and special guest artist mentor Cristina Bucci @cbucci_dance , these emerging creators have explored their unique choreographic voices, navigating the transition from dancer to maker. We are so proud to provide a platform where the next generation of dance artists can refine their craft and bring their visions to the stage.
