Artist Q&A following the performance
“Three points of contact” defines choreographer and RUBBERBAND founder Victor Quijada’s work and style as an unusually difficult yet expressive and highly athletic dance form that connects dancers to the stage, or each other, with three body parts. The three points describe his technique and also Quijada’s trio of cultures: Mexican heritage, Los Angeles upbringing, and French-Canadian residency. Vic’s Mix extracts notable works from Quijada’s extensive repertory as both a classically trained dancer and b-boy performer in a humorous yet thoughtful program filled with dance theater and both classical and original music.
“With a unique blend of break dancing, ballet, and modern that draws from Quijada’s broad and impressive dance career, ‘Vic’s Mix’ brings street dance to the concert hall with his singular choreographic vision.” (Communique)
