Dzul Dance was created in 2003. Artistic Director Javier Dzul and his culturally diverse company of performers have been presented throughout New York and Mexico and in South America, Europe, Canada, Asia and the Virgin Islands garnering reviews along the way that hail Dzul’s “acrobatic wizardry” (Attitude: The Dancer’s Magazine) and his ability to turn his dancers of “remarkable elasticity” into
“creatures of the air as well as of the earth” (The New York Times). His choreographies have been described as “electrifying” by Magazine.Art, “sophisticated and eloquent” by Attitude:The Dancers’ Magazine and “beautiful…extremely effective” by The New York Times. Dzul Dance’s intense physicality and creative appeal have won them invitations nationally and internationally to perform at a variety of venues that include: the United Nations, Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, El Museo del Barrio, Banff Centre for the Arts (Canada), Xcaret (Mexico), Gerald W. Lynch Theater, Tribeca Performing Arts Center, Saint Mark’s Church, Kaye Playhouse, CUNY Graduate Center, Baruch Performing Arts Center, American Indian Community House, Dixon Place, Teatro Cancun (Mexico) and Reichold Center for the Arts (USVI).
