The AZTLAN Dance Company presents the world premiere of “The Enchilada Western: ReFried” September 11 & 12, 18­ – 20th, 2015, at the Santa Cruz Theater, 1805 East Seventh Street in Austin Texas. Tickets and information at www.aztlandance.com.

Program Description:

Dancing in the spaces between here and there, somewhere and nowhere, the AZTLAN Dance Company presents a full evening original choreography that journeys through the surreal and magical (and sometimes dangerous) borderlands spaces of Xicano consciousness.

Set in a time of yesteryear, AZTLAN dancers enter the Borderlands/Frontera in order to cross the mystery world(s) of both familiar and unfamiliar characters, settings, and experiences. From the carnival tonic salesman to the moonlight sorcerer (la hechisera), or from the lone lost vaquera to the lost vertigo posse looking for new horizons, the Enchilada Western: ReFried is a place you will want to know, but fear entering. Travel with the AZTLAN dancers as they take on all risk, so that you don’t have to. Prepare yourself for the whole Enchilada!
