Power Redefined. Carmen Reborn.
She's not just playing the game she's running it.

Meet Carmen like you've never seen her before. In Annabelle Lopez Ochoa's daring new vision, she's not just a seductress she's a strategist. Bold. Unstoppable. In control of her own fate.

Inspired by Hollywood blockbuster Molly's Game, this Carmen doesn't wait for fate she deals the cards. Every move is calculated, every glance a challenge. The stakes? Power, passion, survival. And she never bets on anyone but herself.

This World Premiere is a game of desire and deception, where power is won, lost, and taken. But be warned once you enter Carmen's world, there's no turning back.

Dance NOW! Miami presents Program III Featuring Terra Mia/My Land

Dance NOW! culminates its 25th Anniversary Season with Program III featuring the world premiere of Terra Mia I My Land for both Broward and Miami audiences in a two-night run. Terra Mia I My Land showcases Italian heritage and history, filtered through the personal memories of company Director Diego Salterini. The ballet will highlight the dichotomy and intensity of the country, from the fashion of Milan to the bustle of the streets of Naples to the emerald shores of Sicily. "Italy is so much more than many people imagine," added Salterini. The piece includes an original score by Federico Bonacossa, also an Italian native and long-time collaborator with Dance NOW! on pieces such as "Anusim, what is hidden is never lost.

The evening will also include several celebrated works from Dance Now's repertory, among them the powerful and relevant finale from Bridges NOT Walls, their critically acclaimed work about immigration, borders and refugees, as well as Co-Director Baumgarten's Machiavellian tribal Court Dance, and other works."At no time has it been easy to sustain a contemporary dance company like ours, and especially today, with the challenges to funding and content, it's even more amazing to me that Dance NOW! Miami is thriving at twenty-five years old," said Baumgarten. "For us, art is a necessity, and we will never stop dancing!"
