Ballet Hispánico

“Always vibrant and richly textured …” —The New York Times

Since her debut in 1875, Carmen, the title character from Bizet’s opera, has become a timeless cultural icon, inspiring generations of composers, choreographers and writers to attempt to capture her elusive allure. Gustavo Ramirez Sansano’s electrifying CARMEN.maquia is a bold, original and explosive retelling of her tragic tale. Ballet Hispánico, led by Artistic Director and CEO Eduardo Vilaro, is America’s premier Latino dance company, reimagining dance with joyful works that defy tradition.

For more than 85 years, the Artist Series has brought the globe's finest jazz, classical, world music and dance performers to Boulder. Many of these performances sell out; order your tickets today to guarantee the best seats.
