Berrie Center presents the Calpulli Mexican Dance Company

(MAHWAH, NJ) -- The Berrie Center’s Arch Performances will begin the 2023-2024 season with a performance from Calpulli Mexican Dance Company on Saturday, October 7 at 8:00pm in the Sharp Theater. The performance, made possible with generous support from the Mid Atlantic Tours program of Mid Atlantic Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, is part of the College’s celebration of Latinx Heritage Month.

Calpulli Mexican Dance Company’s performances are like the traditions of Mexico: colorful, passionate, and inviting. With glorious costumes, contagious rhythms and captivating performers, the Company has a vibrant repertoire of dance and live music with cherished dance traditions, lesser-known stories and original works that capture the Mexican-American spirit.

Calpulli is a touring company dedicated to celebrating the rich diversity and traditions of Mexican heritage and Mexican-American cultural expression through dance-based programming. With artistic direction from Alberto Lopez Herrera and music direction from George Saenz, the Company made its international debut in the Kingdom of Bahrain in 2013 and has also been featured at Lincoln Center Out of Doors, Dollywood Festival of Nations, and Carnegie Hall.
