Celebrated as “hands down the leading Hispanic-American dance company” (Buenos Aires Herald), the sexy Ballet Hispanico teams up with the 19-member, Grammy Award-winning Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra for a sizzling hot, Latin dance party. With the company’s signature dances Club Havana and Tito on Timbales, the stage will ignite with the infectious rhythms of Cuban, jazz and big-band music and the stylish Latin social dances of Rumba, Salsa, Cha-cha, and Mambo. The result is a fiery evening that “makes you want to get up and dance” (The New York Times).


“Ballet Hispanico is a good-time company…sleek, gorgeous dancers blending modern, ballroom and ballet in fizzy cocktails that go down easy.” —The New York Sun

“The Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra fuels dancing and joy.” —The Gilmore Festival
