RUBBERBANDance (2018)

“A dancer starts out as a b-boy, forms his own post-hip-hop dance company at 26 and gets a commission from a classical ballet company at 30. Not a common progression in the dance world, but it is Victor Quijada’s story.”

The New York Times

RUBBERBANDance (2018)

“[T]he company's style is vividly and intelligently rooted. Super-stretched jumps morph into crouching rolls; top-rocking footwork muscles in on high stepping bourrées; and below the movement's surface, silky classical phrasing is worked into the choppy rhythms of street dance.”

The Guardian

RUBBERBANDance (2018)

"It's not just a cut-and-paste of ballet vocabulary, hip-hop vocabulary or break vocabulary. It's ... everything that I've known and experienced to this moment."

Victor Quijada
