Cerqua Rivera Dance Theatre

This engaging performance features signature and new dance works depicting facets of our humanity: challenges, triumphs, resilience, beauty, and joy.

Cerqua Rivera Dance Theatre is directed by Wilfredo Rivera. A Honduran native who champions diversity for audiences and artists alike, he is also one of few directors of color leading a multicultural organization spanning 25 years of excellence. His unique perspective as a Latinx immigrant, combined with his American professional development, informs the company's creative process and thoughtfully curated programming.

Cerqua Rivera is proudly and visibly multicultural, exploring the intersection of heritage, culture, and identity through high-quality art. Its unique culture of collaboration and diversity fosters magnetic connections between artists and audiences. With its intentional focus on personal narratives, the combined talents of its diverse company, and the multiple artistic languages with which it communicates, Cerqua Rivera engages audiences in compelling human stories at once new and deeply familiar. We consider our society not a melting pot but a healthy forest. Each individual contributes to the beauty and health of the whole by being exactly who and what they are.
