Primera Generación Dance Collective, announce our Los Ángeles premier of Nepantla, an evening length performance comprised of improvisation, postmodern, contemporary and Mexican social/folk forms, where we collectively fuse together our eclectic aesthetics to expose el desmadre(messiness) that is our first generation, Mexican American experience in the United States. This movement-based performance is an abridged manifestation of our most recent works (“Cambio”, “Ni Fú, Ni Fá”, “intentcity”) and is built through a series of non-sequitur vignettes that reflect, generate, and question the flux that is Mexican American Identity. The work is strategically built through culturally-iconic images, sounds, props, and food to expose cultural stereotypes, negotiate and question immigration policies, and visibilize the harsh realities and imaginative potentials of migrant/first-generation brown bodies in the U.S.

Please join us Saturday, March 28th 2020, at 8pm at We Live in Space (WLIS) on behalf of Show Box LA as we conclude our residency.
