Since her debut in 1875, Carmen, the titular character from Bizet’s opera, has become a timeless cultural icon, inspiring generations of composers, choreographers and writers to attempt to capture her elusive and alluring nature. Ballet Hispánico honors the powerful Spanish leading lady with Gustavo Ramírez Sansano’s electrifying CARMEN.maquia. One of today’s most sought-after choreographers, Sansano’s quintessential ballet invigorates this timeless tale with an unrelenting energy that leaves you breathless. Highly original and full of explosive movement, CARMEN. maquia is a bold reimagining of this tragic tale. ‘This Carmen has a spare, elegant, Modernist look.’ (Brian Seibert, The New York Times) ‘Ramírez’s movement is refreshingly unique. Ballet Hispánico’s ensemble plays many parts and maneuvers through humorous and nuanced moments with ease and clarity.’ (Broadway World) Ramírez Sansano explains the title’s significance: ‘I saw many Carmens and didn’t want to call it just Carmen. The art of bullfighting is “tauromaquia” and Picasso said Carmen was like the untamable bull. So, we took “tauromaquia”, removed “tauro” and added “Carmen”.’
Gustavo Ramírez Sansano was Artistic Director of Luna Negra Dance Theater between 2009–2013, and now he combines his work as a freelance choreographer with the direction of Titoyaya Dansa, the company he founded in Spain with Verónica García Moscardó in 2006. Sansano has received numerous awards for his choreography, including first prize at the Ricard Moragas Competition in Barcelona (1997), Prix Dom Pérignon Choreographic Competition in Hamburg (2001) and Premio de Las Artes Escénicas de la Comunidad Valenciana (2005). Sansano has been commissioned to create works for many companies such as Nederlands Dans Theater, Compañía Nacional de Danza, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, Luzerner Tanztheater, Ballet BC, The Hamburg Ballet, Atlanta Ballet and Luna Negra Dance Theater, among others.
Ballet Hispánico is the nation’s leading Hispanic/Latine dance company and the largest cultural institution of its kind in the United States. For over five decades, it has been a beacon of artistic excellence, celebrated for its bold repertory and exceptional training programs. The company has commissioned over 100 original works, performed on the world’s most prestigious stages, and inspired generations through performances, education and community engagement. Recognized as one of America’s Cultural Treasures by the Ford Foundation, Ballet Hispánico continues to redefine what it means to be an American dance company.
At the helm is Artistic Director & CEO Eduardo Vilaro, a former Ballet Hispánico dancer and acclaimed choreographer who assumed leadership in 2009. Under his dynamic guidance, the company has entered a new era – broadening its artistic scope, deepening its repertory, and elevating its distinctive movement language. Vilaro carries forward the founding vision of Tina Ramirez, who launched Ballet Hispánico in 1970 to celebrate the beauty of Latino cultures through dance. The company has garnered widespread acclaim, with The New York Times noting, ‘Many companies pay lip service to nurturing talent, but Ballet Hispánico has devoted significant resources and care to cultivating emerging artists.’ Today, Ballet Hispánico stands not only as a cultural institution, but as a movement pushing the boundaries of performance while honoring the traditions that shaped its legacy.
