NJPAC Presents Nimbus Dance On November 6th

originally published: 05/13/2021


(NEWARK, NJ) -- New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents Nimbus Dance on Saturday, November  6, 2021 at 7:00pm.  The boundary-pushing, community-driven modern dance ensemble performs a special program as part of the TD James Moody Jazz Festival—including the world premiere of Raucous Caucus Tango, a collaboration with GRAMMY® Award-winning tango virtuoso Pedro Giraudo.

This creative mash-up of bawdy storytelling, slapstick humor, and exquisite choreography pokes fun at our electoral process, set to the passionate, dramatic rhythms of Argentine tango.

Artistic collaborations include work with the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra and esteemed artists including Pedro Giraudo, Latin Grammy winner, Aaron Parks, Blue Note Jazz Artist, Tim Eriksen, Grammy nominee, composer Qasim Naqvi, video artists Laia Cabrera and Isabelle Duverger, among others.
